2) A female patient has had a lifelong battle with sever muscle weakness. When her doctor examines her genome, he saw the following. What type of chromosomal mutation does she have?

choose from one of the answer choices below:

a) inversion

b) Nonreciprocal translocation

c) Reciprocal translocation

d) duplication

e) Robertsonian translocation

f) Deletion

3) Below are two non-homologous chromosomes. For each choice, select the best match for the type of mutation that has occurred.

XYZ?ABCDE

FGHIJ?KLMN

1) XYZ?ADE =

2) XYZ?ABCBCDE =

3) FGHIJ?KLMHGN =

4) XYZ?AE   

FGHBCDIJ?KLMN =

5) FGHLK?JIMN =

6) XYZ?ABCMN

FGHIJ?KLDE =

7) FGHIJ?KLMNABCDE (no 2nd chromosome) =

8) XYZ?ADCBE =

for each of the above choices, select the best match from the options below:

a) nonreciprocal translocation

b) deletion

c) pericentric inversion

d) reciprocal translocation

e) reverse duplication

f) Robertsonian translocation

g) paracentric inversion

h) tandem duplication

a) nonreciprocal translocation

b) deletion

c) pericentric inversion

d) reciprocal translocation

e) reverse duplication

f) Robertsonian translocation

g) paracentric inversion

h) tandem duplication

Explanation / Answer

2. the type of the chromosomal mutaion occurs in the female with muscle weakness is ;

Option a ; deletion. as there is a deletion of the one long arm of the chromosome .

3.

Option 1 ; matching is b , deletion

Option 2; matching is e , reverse duplication.

Option 3 ; matching is h, tandem duplication

Option 4; option a, non reciprocal translocation

Option 5; Option C ,pericentric inversion

Option 6; Option f ,robertsonian translocation

Option 7; option D ,reciprocal translocation

option 8 ;option G ,Paracentric inversion
