The trisomy for 21st chromosome is called
Down's syndrome
Turner's syndrome
Sickle cell anaemia
Klinfelter's syndrome
L- shaped chromosomes are also called
acrocentric
telocentric
sub- metacentric
None of these
C.
sub- metacentric
The shape of chromosome is determined by the position of centromere on the chromosomes. They may be of following five types:
(i) Acentric- centromere is absent.
(ii) Telocentric- centromere present at one end of chromosome.
(iii) Acrocentric- when chromosome is divided into a very small segment at one end and a very large segment on the other end.
(iv)Submetacentric- when chromosome has two unequal segments and forms V- shaped structure.
(v) Metacentric- two equal segments of chromosomes
