you prepare a karyotype from a cell from an unknown organism. upon analysis, you find 22 pairs of chromosomes that are each of equal length, and also a single pair that has one chromosome longer than the other. what can you conclude from this information the organism that the cell came from is likelel a male has a genetic disease likely a femal likely haploid

This is a karyotype of a mouse body cell. Answer the questions below 1) Is this karyotype from a somatic cell or sex cell? 2) Is this karyotype from a haploid or diploid cell and how can you tell? 3) How many total chromosomes does this organism have? 3) How many pairs of autosomes does this organism have? 4) Is this mouse male or female? 5) What other information can you learn from looking at a karyotype?

A certain (hypothetical) organism is diploid, has either blue or orange wings as the consequence of one of its genes on chromosome 12, and has either long or short antennae as the result of a second gene on chromosome 19, as shown in the figure. A certain female's number 12 chromosomes both have the blue gene and number 19 chromosomes both have the long gene. As cells in her ovaries undergo meiosis, which of the following combinations of genes and chromosomes will her eggs have?
