    Separates modal number (total number of chromosomes), sex chromosomes, and chromosome abnormalities -Loss of a chromosome ( ) Grouping for breakpoints and structurally altered chromosomes + Gain of a chromosome ; Separates rearranged chromosomes and breakpoints involving more than one chromosome / Separates cell lines or clones //

  3. Relation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relation_(mathematics)

    For example, the red and green relations in the diagram are total, but the blue one is not (as it does not relate −1 to any real number), nor is the black one (as it does not relate 2 to any real number). As another example, > is a serial relation over the integers. But it is not a serial relation over the positive integers, because there is ...

  4. Nondisjunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondisjunction

    This phenomenon most likely is the result of a pregnancy that started as a trisomy due to nondisjunction. Since most trisomies are lethal, the fetus only survives because it loses one of the three chromosomes and becomes disomic. Uniparental disomy of chromosome 15 is, for example, seen in some cases of Prader-Willi syndrome and Angelman ...

DNA molecule containing genetic material of a cell This article is about the DNA molecule. For the genetic algorithm, see Chromosome (genetic algorithm). Chromosome (10 7 - 10 10 bp) DNA Gene (10 3 - 10 6 bp) Function A chromosome and its packaged long strand of DNA unraveled. The DNA's ...

  6. Karyotype - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karyotype

    The basic number of chromosomes in the somatic cells of an individual or a species is called the somatic number and is designated 2n. In the germ-line (the sex cells) the chromosome number is n (humans: n = 23). [4] [5] p28 Thus, in humans 2n = 46. So, in normal diploid organisms, autosomal chromosomes are present in two copies.

  7. Homogeneous relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneous_relation

    For example, ≥ is a reflexive relation but > is not. Irreflexive (or strict) for all x ∈ X, not xRx. For example, > is an irreflexive relation, but ≥ is not. Coreflexive for all x, y ∈ X, if xRy then x = y. [7] For example, the relation over the integers in which each odd number is related to itself is a coreflexive relation.

  8. Intransitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intransitivity

    This is an example of an antitransitive relation that does not have any cycles. In particular, by virtue of being antitransitive the relation is not transitive. The game of rock, paper, scissors is an example. The relation over rock, paper, and scissors is "defeats", and the standard rules of the game are such that rock defeats scissors ...

  9. Copy number variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copy_number_variation

    Copy number variation (CNV) is a phenomenon in which sections of the genome are repeated and the number of repeats in the genome varies between individuals. [1] Copy number variation is a type of structural variation: specifically, it is a type of duplication or deletion event that affects a considerable number of base pairs. [2]
