Study the process of meiosis – specifically what occurs when homologous chromosomes fail to separate
Human cell can be categorized into gametes (Sperm & egg cells) and somatic cells, which include all cells other than
gametes. Each somatic cell nucleus has 46 chromosomes in 23 pairs. These are diploid cells, and the individual’s father
and mother each donate on chromosome per pair. New somatic cells are formed through mitosis and cytokinesis.
Gametes are haploid cells: they have only 1 member of each chromosome pair, for a total of 23 chromosomes. Haploid
cells are formed from diploid cells by meiosis.
A somatic cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes
In meiosis I, chromosomes in a diploid cell resegregate, producing four haploid daughter cells. It is this step in meiosis
that generates genetic diversity. DNA replication precedes the start of meiosis I. During prophase I, homologous
chromosomes pair and form synapses, a step unique to meiosis.
In meiosis a haploid cell is created from a diploid cell.
What are the 8 stages of meiosis in order?
Aneuploidy is caused by nondisjunction, which occurs when pairs of homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids fail
to separate during meiosis. The loss of a single chromosome from a diploid genome is called monosomy (2n-1), while
the gain of one chromosome is called trisomy (2n+1).
Know the risk factors for down syndrome
Nondisjunction occurs when homologous chromosomes (meiosis I) or sister chromatids (meiosis II) fail to separate
during meiosis..... The most common trisomy is that of chromosome 21, which leads to Down syndrome.
Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder
Down syndrome
Best known example of aneuploidy
Trisomy 21
1:800 live births
Mentally retarded, low nasal bridge, epicanthal folds, protruding tongue, poor muscle tone
Risk increases with maternal age >35
People who have down syndrome are at a higher risk for developing Alzheimer disease because of involvement of
chromosome 21.
1 in 800 to 1 in 1000 live births are affected with Down syndrome.
RISK FACTORS – increases greatly with material age. Younger than 30 have a risk of 1 – 1000 to 1 in 2000. After 35 risk
increases greatly. By 45 and older a risk of 3% to 5% of children born will have down syndrome.
This increase in risk is caused by the age of maternal egg cells, which are held in an arrested state of prophase 1 from the
time they are formed in the female embryo until they are shred in ovulations. Thus, an egg cell formed by a 45-year
woman is inself 45 years old. This long suspended state may allow defects to accumulate in the cellular proteins
responsible for meiosis, leading to nondisjunction. The risk of Down syndrome, as well as other trisomies, does not
increase with paternal age.
Genetic diseases caused by single genes usually are autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive or X-linked recessive
X-linked recessive disease are seen more often in males than in females.

If the cells have three copies of each chromosome triploidy is present.
Loss of chromosome material usually has more serious consequences than duplication of chromosome material.

A Barr body is an inactivated X chromosome that is seen in normal female cells.
Study transmission factors associated with Huntington’s disease
Recurrence risk for autosomal dominant inheritance like Huntington’s Disease. Recurrence risk for autosomal dominant
inheritance would be 50% if one parent was heterozygous for the trait, 75% if both parents were heterozygous, and
100% if either parent was homozygous for the trait.
Autosomal dominant inheritance pattern
Huntington disease is a single-gene disorder.
Huntington's disease is caused by an inherited defect in a single gene. Huntington's disease is an autosomal dominant
disorder, which means that a person needs only one copy of the defective gene to develop the disorder
Study Turner’s syndrome – specifically what karyotype is associated with it
A sex chromosome aneuploidy (a cell that does not contain a multiple of 23 chromosomes) condition that lead to
somewhat more serious problems is the presence of a single X chromosome and no homologous X or Y chromosome, so
that the individual has a total of 45 chromosomes. The Karyotype is usually designated 45,X and it cases a set of
symptoms know as Turner syndrome.
Turner syndrome
Females with only one X chromosome
Characteristics:
Underdeveloped ovaries (sterile)
Short stature (~ 4'7")
Webbing of the neck
Edema
Underdeveloped breasts; wide nipples
High number of aborted fetuses
X is usually inherited from mother
Turner’s syndrome is a chromosome disorder
Aneuploidy is usually the result of nondisjunction (an error in which homoloegous chromosomes or sister chromatids fail
to separate normally during meisosis or mitosis)
A karyotype or karyogram is an ordered display of chromosomes. A display of chromosomes ordered according to length
and centromere locations is called a karyotype
Study Klinefelte disorder. Specifically, what karyotype is associated with it
Individuals with at least two X chromosomes and 1 Y chromosomes in each cell (47, XXY karyotype) have a disorder
known as Klinefelter syndrome.
Klinefelte is a chromosome disorder
People who have the 47, XXY karyotype have klinefelte disorder
Klinefelter syndrome
Individuals with at least two Xs and one Y chromosome
