Aneuploidy
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Aneuploidy is a chromosome number that departs from the normal set by one or more whole chromosomes, most often from nondisjunction.
Show
A trisomy carries three copies of one chromosome instead of two; a monosomy carries only one.
Watch for
Aneuploidy changes chromosome count only — it is not the same event as a point mutation changing a single gene's sequence.
