Description

A karyotype is a standardized arrangement of chromosomes. In normal diploid organisms, autosomal chromosomes are present in two identical copies, although polyploid cells have multiple copies of chromosomes and haploid cells have single copies. The chromosomes are paired, ordered by size, stained and displayed in a standard format known as an idiogram. Karyotypes are used to study chromosomal aberrations, and may be used to determine other macroscopically visible aspects of an individual's genotype, such as sex. The pattern of individual chromosomes is called chromosome banding, whereas the study of whole sets of chromosomes is known as karyology. Normal human karyotypes contain 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
