The difference between euploidy from aneuploidy
Difference between euploidy from aneuploidy
Euploidy is defined as a change in the entire set of chromosomes, i.e. loss or gain of the entire set of chromosomes. It is usually found in plants. Examples include haploid (n, a single pair of chromosomes), triploid (3n), and hexaploidy (6n). Higher plants and animals are generally diploid, which means they have two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent. Aneuploidy, on the other hand, refers to the gain and loss of one or two chromosomes, such as monosomy (2n-1), trisomy (2n+1), and nullisomy (2n-2). Aneuploidy is caused by chromosome nondisjunction during cell division and accounts for a variety of chromosomal abnormalities.
Monosomy-Turner syndrome, trisomy-Down syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, and other forms of aneuploidy are examples of aneuploidy.
