a ______ is an ordered display of chromosome pairs
karyotype
A karyotype is an ordered display of chromosome pairs. A karyotype is a visual representation of an individual’s chromosomes arranged in pairs based on their size, shape, and banding pattern. Karyotypes are often used in cytogenetics to determine genetic disorders, such as Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and Klinefelter syndrome, by analyzing the structure and number of chromosomes in a cell. A human karyotype typically consists of 23 pairs of chromosomes, including 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males).
