ooh, colorful chromosomes
ReplyDeleteare chromosomes colorful?
do they even have a color?
wow that is really cool i think maybe next year you should do that in class because its a really good way to show how to match things for the lab... by the way does anyone no what periods we have onn the 19th since its a half day
ReplyDeleteI really thought that this animation was fun and interesting. Animations are a really good way to learn!
ReplyDeleteThanks Leslie!
I never knew until the Lab what karyotyping was and now i can see why people are so intrested in doing this.
ReplyDeleteThat was cool Leslie!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Down, Kleinfelter's, Trisomy 13!!!

Sorry...
Thanks again Leslie!

It was hard to match the chromosomes because some of them were bent or straight, so it was a little hard to determine the size, and it was hard to pair the x chromosome with the y chromosome. The banding patterns weren't that clear also.
ReplyDeletePatient A had down syndrome, Patient B had klinefelder's syndrome, and Patient C had patau's syndrome.
Can people have other syndromes, and if so in what chromosome do they have the genetic disorder in?
Leslie--
ReplyDeleteI have to say i was kind of confused about this when we did the lab. In addition to your wonderful help with it and DEFINETLY this activity, I get it now!! YAY!
in terms of the genetic project, I have a really helpful link for learning about the brain and Alzheimer's disease.

click on the brain tour. You will totally understand how the brain works afterwards!
Thanks for posting this animation, because when me and Daniella did the lab, it was really crazy to try and match up all of the chromosones, because we kept losing some and some of the chromosones looked the same, and it was just crazy! After this activity/ animation i understand everything now. Thanks again!!

It was so much easier to understand online instead of during the lab because there were sooooooo many different pieces to glue on!!!
ReplyDeleteso clear and easy to understand. i think it is really cool that you can clone an organism. i know that you can not clone a human for "ethical reasons" but what does that exactly mean?
ReplyDeleteP.S. Leslie--I hope you are enjoying your break!
leslie-- that comment was for click and clone a mouse--not karyotyping activity--sorry!!
ReplyDeletethanks, this activity helped me understand this much better!

This helped so much!
ReplyDeleteThanks Leslie!
