Aneuploidy Flashcards
1
Q
What is non disjunction in anaphase 1&2
A
1- failure of homologous chromosome to seperate
2- failure of sister chromatids to separate
2
Q
Anaphase lag
A
Chromosomal loss via micronucleud
Daughter cell deficiency of chromosome
3
Q
Disomic and nullisomic gamete
A
Disomic- 2 chromatids in one gamete
Null- 0 chromatids
Normal monosomic - 1 chromatid
4
Q
1st & 2nd polar
A
1- affter meiosis 1
2- after meiosis 2 , after fertilization when sperm penetrates egg
5
Q
21:21 fusion
A
Roberstinian translocation of 2 , 21 chromosomes
At meiosis cant form normal gametes
6
Q
Reciprocal translocation segregation
A
2:2 segration / 2 chromosomes to 1 gamete
Normal, balanced or unbalanced
3:1 3 chr to 1 gamete
Always unbalanced
