T or F. A semi-colon can be used when only one chromosome is involved.

there is no loss of genetic information as there is only a transfer of segments at other regions

insertion

if a distal fragment is detached, as long as it reattaches to a proximal arm, then there is no loss of genetic information

insertion

Robertsonian translocation/centric fusion usually occurs in acrocentric chromosomes (centromeres are near the end)

derivative

F (2 breakpoints)

T or F. monosomy 14 is formed where chromosome 21 joined with chromosome 14 to make a single chromosome—the centromere belongs to chromosome 21 hence chromosome 21 is lost 45,XY,der(14;21)(q10;q10)

F (c14 is lost)

T or F. The patient is still phenotypically normal considering that the segments lost only contain small amounts of rRNA so it doesn’t affect the function of it however, future offspring may have abnormalities because of the extra chromosome 21 located in chromosome 14 45,XY,der(14;21)(q10;q10)

Top: paracentric inversion Bottom: pericentric inversion

- 46 chrom, male, inversion in chromosome 11 - the break is in both arms. First is in short arm, region 1, band 1, and second is in short arm region 1, band 5 - Then, the region between the two breakpoints detaches, then flips upside down (180 degrees), and then reattaches. Hence, this is a?

paracentric inversion

There is a breakpoint/deletion in both regions and the fragment between the two regions is deleted and is lost; then chromosome reattaches. Hence, this is an?

interstitial deletion.

T or F. Terminal deletion only has 2 loci.

F (1)

- 46 chrom - male - deletion in chromosome 4, short arm, region 1, band 6, sub band 3 - break gets detached and is lost hence this is a?

terminal deletion

- 46 chrom - male - inversion in chromosome 11, the break is in both arms - the region between the two breakpoints detaches, then flips upside down (180 degrees), and then reattaches. Hence, this is?

paracentric inversion

The two breaks occur in the same arm and it does not involve the centromere

paracentric inversion

Karyotype: 46 chrom, female, insertion in chromosome 2 involving short arm, region 1, band 3, long arm, region 2, band 1, and long arm, region 3, band 1. The segment between the breakpoint q21 and q31 was inserted into the breakpoint of p13.

balance reciprocal translocation

Centric fusion: Robertsonian

sually occurs in acrocentric chromosomes – chromosomes which usually have their centromeres near the end of the chromosome.

Robertsonian translocation or centric fusion

still considered as a balanced carrier because they say that this part of the acrocentric chromosome (the lost part) only contains ribosomal RNA, and they are so plentiful that even though some of it is lost, it still does not affect the function of ribosomal RNA. The patient is considered as

phenotypically normal

F (transverse)

Abnormalities based on Cell Chromosomal Constituent (2 answers)

constitutional and acquired/somatic

→ found in all cells of the body → occurs very early in development (in meiosis I) → caused by defects in sperm or egg, anomalous fertilization, or abnormal episodes in the early embryo

→ present only in certain tissues or cells

somatic/acquired
