  2. Chromosome abnormality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_abnormality

    [citation needed] An example of trisomy in humans is Down syndrome, which is a developmental disorder caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21; the disorder is therefore also called trisomy 21. [7] An example of monosomy in humans is Turner syndrome, where the individual is born with only one sex chromosome, an X. [8]

  3. Ring chromosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_chromosome

    Human genetic disorders can be caused by ring chromosome formation. Although ring chromosomes are very rare, they have been found in all human chromosomes. Symptoms seen in patients carrying ring chromosomes are more likely to be caused by the deletion of genes in the telomeric regions of affected chromosomes, rather than by the formation of a ring structure itself.

  4. Pareto chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_chart

    A Pareto chart is a type of chart that contains both bars and a line graph, where individual values are represented in descending order by bars, and the cumulative total is represented by the line. The chart is named for the Pareto principle , which, in turn, derives its name from Vilfredo Pareto , a noted Italian economist.

  5. Uniparental disomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniparental_disomy

    For example, either isodisomy or heterodisomy can disrupt parent-specific genomic imprinting, resulting in imprinting disorders. Additionally, isodisomy leads to large blocks of homozygosity , which may lead to the uncovering of recessive genes, a similar phenomenon seen in inbred children of consanguineous partners.

  6. Turner syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turner_syndrome

    Turner syndrome (TS), also known as 45,X, or 45,X0, is a genetic disorder in which a person's cells have only one X chromosome or are partially missing an X chromosome (sex chromosome monosomy) leading to the complete or partial deletion of the pseudoautosomal regions (PAR1, PAR2) in the affected X chromosome.

    Microsoft Word is a word processor program developed by Microsoft.It was first released on October 25, 1983, [9] under the name Multi-Tool Word for Xenix systems. [10] [11] [12] Subsequent versions were later written for several other platforms including: IBM PCs running DOS (1983), Apple Macintosh running the Classic Mac OS (1985), AT&T UNIX PC (1985), Atari ST (1988), OS/2 (1989), Microsoft ...

  9. DNA and RNA codon tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_and_RNA_codon_tables

    It can also be represented in a DNA codon table. The DNA codons in such tables occur on the sense DNA strand and are arranged in a 5 ′-to-3 ′ direction. Different tables with alternate codons are used depending on the source of the genetic code, such as from a cell nucleus, mitochondrion, plastid, or hydrogenosome. [5]
