Explain the location of a gene found at 17p23.6. Explain the meaning of the chromosome ""address"" 12p7.2.

Answer

The location of a gene found here is at the short arm of chromosome 17 at the specific point of the short arm of 23.6 on the chromosome.

Meaning of the address 12p7.2

12- chromosome 12

p- short arm of chromosome 12

7.2- exact point of the short arm on chromosome 12. The position of the gene on the p or q arm. The position of a gene is based on a distinctive pattern of light and dark bands that appear when the chromosome is stained in a certain way.

These addresses allow scientist and doctors to have a quick and easy way to reference specific genes to where they are which gives insight into their location.

you must remain stopped until the stop signal is retracted and the red lights are turned off. approaching traffic in the opposite roadway of a divided highway shall not be required to stop, even if the school bus has the stop-arm extended and the alternately flashing warning signal lamps on.
