Autosomal Trisomy Chromosome Diseases. The 22 non-sex autosome chromosomes (autosomes) can also exhibit disorders, of which the most common is trisomy (having 3 copies rather than a pair). Because these are disorders of the autosomes and not the sex chromosomes, these disorders can occur with males or females.
Chromosomal Structure and Chromosomal Mutations. Objectives Define mutations and polymorphisms. Distinguish the three types of DNA mutations: genome, chromosomal, and gene. Diagram a human chromosome and label the centromere, q arm, p arm, and telomere.Illustrate the different types of structural mutations that occur in chromosomes. Show how karyotypes reveal chromosomal abnormalities.bjectives Define mutations and polymorphisms. Distinguish the three types of DNA mutations: genome, chromosomal, and gene.
