∙ 7y agoThere are multiple genes encoded by this chromosome. The duplication of the chromosome might have dysregulated multiple genes that affect the patterning of the head and body and affect wing pigmentation. On the other hand, one gene might be involved in all these processes.
For instance, patients with Down syndrome have three copies of chromosome 21, resulting in developmental issues but also an early onset of Alzheimers Disease.

∙ 11y agoThe chromosome of a bacterium contains the organism's genetic information in the form of DNA. It carries the instructions necessary for the bacterium to grow, replicate, and function. The chromosome also plays a role in governing the bacteria's traits and characteristics.
A replicated chromosome is a chromosome that has been copied during the S phase of the cell cycle, resulting in two identical sister chromatids joined at the centromere. This duplication ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material during cell division.
A fertile organism is one that has the ability to produce offspring or gametes. In plants, it means they can produce seeds. In animals, it means they can produce viable eggs or sperm.
Yes, mutations can occur all over at the same time. For example in a multicellular organism a gamma ray or x-ray photon passing through the organism can generate one or more mutations in every cell that the photon passes through. Another example mutagenic chemicals can produce many mutations in every chromosome.
It is the fusion of gametes to produce a new organism.
Deletion is the loss of a segment of DNA, duplication is the replication of a DNA segment, inversion is the flipping of a DNA segment, and translocation is the movement of a DNA segment to a new location in the genome. These are all types of structural variations that can lead to genetic disorders or diversity in populations.
Melanocytes produce melanin which contributes to pigmentation of the skin.
Y chromosome
An organism with 24 chromosomes in each body cell will produce sex cells with 12 chromosomes each. This is because during meiosis, the chromosome number is halved to ensure the correct number of chromosomes in the offspring.

Hyper-pigmentation , a process of the skin to be darken as compare to its surrounding.Our skin cell melanocytes produce a substance called melanin. melanin is the pigmentating substance in our skin.Cause: Excess of the melanin in the skin causes the hyper-pigmentation of skin.There are many skin condition which is form of hyper-pigmentation in skin. More common reason for such pigmentation disorders is the harmful ultra violet radiation in skin. The inverse of hyper-pigmentation is the depigmentation or hypo-pigmentation such as the skin condition vitiligo.
The chromosome of a bacterium contains the organism's genetic information in the form of DNA. It carries the instructions necessary for the bacterium to grow, replicate, and function. The chromosome also plays a role in governing the bacteria's traits and characteristics.
When an original chromosome copies itself, it is said to undergo DNA replication. This process involves the duplication of the genetic material to produce two identical sister chromatids that are attached at the centromere. DNA replication is an essential step in cell division and ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic information.
Pigmentation term use for the process of skin which is responsible for the coloration of skin and continuously produce pigment.Hypo-pigmentation: It is also termed as depigmentation. It is a pigmentation disorder in which white spots appear on skin. Hypo-pigmentation in skin occurs when in a certain part of skin pigmented substance "Melanin" quantity decreases from a certain level.Vitiligo, Nevus depigmentosus , Pityriasis Alba and Idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis are the example of Hypo-pigmentation
The organism could produce 32 different gametes without crossing over. This is calculated as 2^n, where n is the number of chromosome pairs. In this case, 2^5 = 32.
A replicated chromosome is a chromosome that has been copied during the S phase of the cell cycle, resulting in two identical sister chromatids joined at the centromere. This duplication ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material during cell division.
The ditto duplication process, which has long been obsolete, used to produce purple copies.
