Throughout our study of human genetics, we have seen that geneticists and genetic counselors use three tools to predict the passing of traits using punnett squares,
diagramming carriers and those from a family who have a disease as well as the carriers through using a Pedigree chart
and now after our genetic disorders research and presentations we will look at karyotypes and how they can help to diagnose what a patient has or what they have died of by looking at the chromosomes of patients.
We will complete an activity in class through matching up chromosomes for practice and then we will go to the following site for diagnosing three patients by sorting their chromosomes.
