Question
karyotypes show family history
true
false
A karyotype is a visual representation of an individual's chromosomes, showing their number, size, and shape. It is used to detect chromosomal abnormalities (like aneuploidy, deletions, etc.). Family history of genetic disorders is typically gathered through pedigree analysis (tracing family relationships and traits across generations), not directly from a karyotype. A karyotype focuses on the individual's chromosomes, not the historical traits/predispositions of the family line. So the statement is false.
