Unraveling Chromosomal Abnormalities: Understanding Genetic Disorders
Chromosomal abnormalities result from errors in gamete formation, leading to genetic disorders. Nondisjunction fails to separate chromosomes, causing aneuploidy. Anaphase-lagging leads to uneven distribution of chromosomes. Translocations shuffle genetic material, creating unbalanced translocations with health risks. Inversions rearrange material within chromosomes. Duplications and deletions add or remove genetic material, causing gene amplification or deletion syndromes….
