Slide3Slide4Slide5Slide6Slide7Test Questions:
What is the difference between somatic cells and germ cells?
Germ cells undergo meiosis and produce haploid gametes while somatic cells are body cells reproduced through mitosis
2. What is the difference between haploid and diploid cells?
Haploid cell only has one set of chromosomes while diploid cells have two sets, one from each parent.
3. What is a karyotype? And what is it used for?
It is a chart that pairs homologous chromosomes by shape, size, and banding pattern by using a light microscope. It is used to identify disease such as Down Syndrome.
