Translocations, in genetics, happen when chromosomes break and the pieces attach to other chromosomes. This mixing of genetic material has important results. The resultant chromosomes are lacking ...

Chromosomes are cellular structures that contain the genetic material. A chromosome is comprised of a single DNA molecule that may be either circular or linear. The full complement of a cell s ...

Chromosome abnormality is the condition in a cell or organism where the number of chromosomes or the structure of any chromosome differs from the normal karyotype. When the variant genotype is not ...
