Metaphases were studied in the male's chromosomes, and very large submetacentric chromosomes were found there as well, similar to those in the female both in size and morphology . the rest were acrocentric.
22.
The karyotype includes 34 chromosomes with a subtelocentric, with a long and a short arm, and the Y chromosome is very small and is acrocentric in Jujuy specimens, but metacentric in those from Tucum�n.
23.
Their children, however, may either be normal and carry the fusion chromosome ( depending which chromosome is represented in the gamete ), or they may inherit a missing or extra long arm of an acrocentric chromosome.
24.
The karyotype of an Ecuadorean sample from north of the Gulf of Guayaquil is similar to that of Venezuelan animals at 2n = 36, FN = 60; it includes four acrocentric and two subtelocentric pairs and no submetacentrics.
25.
The most frequent forms of Robertsonian translocations are between chromosomes 13 and 14, 14 and 21, and 14 and 15, and occur when the long arms of two acrocentric chromosomes fuse at the centromere and the two short arms are lost.
26.
Three pairs are " metacentric ", meaning that the centromere, the attachment point for the spindle fibers in cell division, is located at the center, or " acrocentric ", with the centromere at an extreme end of each chromosome.
27.
The karyotype includes 80 chromosomes with a total of 86 major arms ( 2n = 80; metacentric or submetacentric ( with two pairs of arms as long as or not much shorter than the other ) pairs of chromosomes are small, and the 35 pairs of acrocentrics range from large to small.
28.
I : Telocentric-centromere placement very close to the top, p arms barely visible if visible at all II : Acrocentric-q arms are still much longer than the p arms, but the p arms are longer than it those in telocentric III : Submetacentric-p and q arms are very close in length but not equal IV : Metacentric-the p arm and the q arms are equal in length A : Short arm ( p arm ) B : Centromere C : Long arm ( q arm ) D : Sister Chromatid
