Chapter 19.1, Problem 2CYP
Summary Introduction
To describe:
The way by which a karyotype in identifying the number of chromosomes in a cell.
Introduction:
Genetic material represents the DNA and RNA. Deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA is the hereditary material. It is present in the eukaryotic cells enclosed in a nuclear membrane. While in prokaryotes it is present in the cytoplasm without the presence of a nuclear membrane. It helps in determining the composition of the organism.
