9: Chromosomes, the Cell Cycle, and Cell Division Introduction Since all living cells are mortal, cell reproduction or replacement is universal among living organisms. Depending on the organism, this may be simple replacement, differentiation, or specialization.
Consequences of translocations • usually none in homozygotes; genetic material is neither lost nor gained: • none in heterozygotes if translocation chromosomes segregate together ( "balanced" translocation ); if translocation chromosomes are separated, genetically imbalanced gametes result ...
