Explore the world of karyotype analysis, chromosome staining techniques, and chromosomal abnormalities in humans. Learn about the structure of metaphase chromosome spreads, different banding techniques, centromere positions, and various chromosomal abnormalities such as euploidy, aneuploidy, trisomy, monosomy, and translocations.
