1
New cards
Genome
basic set of chromosomes of an organism
2
New cards
euploidy
chromosome numbers vary in multiples of the complete chromosome set basic to the species
3
New cards
aneuploidy
chromosome numbers vary by the addition or deletion of specific, individual chromosomes
4
New cards
monoploid
any cell with a complete set of chromosomes; represented by “x”
5
New cards
haploid
number of gametic chromosomes (sex chromosome)
6
New cards
diploid
number of somatic chromosomes
7
New cards
autoploid/autopolyploidy
duplication of genomes of a single species
8
New cards
double haploid
haploid + colchicine
9
New cards
alloploidy/allopolyploidy
combining genomes from 2 or more unrelated species
10
New cards
nullisomic
diploid number minus one pair of chromosomes (2n-2)
11
New cards
monosomic
diploid minus one chromosome (2n-1)
12
New cards
trisomic
diploid plus one chromosome (2n+1)
13
New cards
tetrasomic
diploid plus one pair of chromosomes (2n+2)
14
New cards
gametic
cells with one copy of each chromosome
15
New cards
somatic
cells with two copies of each chromosome
16
New cards
Polyploids
euploids in which the somatic cells possess multiples of complete chromosomes above the diploid level
