Difference between Chromosome and Microchromosome

Chromosome vs. Microchromosome

A chromosome (from Ancient Greek: χρωμόσωμα, chromosoma, chroma means colour, soma means body) is a DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material (genome) of an organism. A microchromosome is a type of very small chromosome which is a typical component of the karyotype of birds, some reptiles, fish, and amphibians; they tend to be absent in mammals.

Similarities between Chromosome and Microchromosome

Chromosome and Microchromosome have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Base pair, Centromere, Chicken, Chromosome 21, Chromosome 7, Cytogenetics, Down syndrome, Gene, Heterochromatin, Interphase, Metaphase, S phase.

Base pair

A base pair (bp) is a unit consisting of two nucleobases bound to each other by hydrogen bonds.

Centromere

The centromere is the specialized DNA sequence of a chromosome that links a pair of sister chromatids (a dyad).

Cytogenetics

Cytogenetics is a branch of genetics that is concerned with how the chromosomes relate to cell behaviour, particularly to their behaviour during mitosis and meiosis.

Down syndrome

Down syndrome (DS or DNS), also known as trisomy 21, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of all or part of a third copy of chromosome 21.

Gene

In biology, a gene is a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function.

Heterochromatin

Heterochromatin is a tightly packed form of DNA or condensed DNA, which comes in multiple varieties.

Interphase

Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle in which a typical cell spends most of its life.

Metaphase

Metaphase (from the Greek μετά, "adjacent" and φάσις, "stage") is a stage of mitosis in the eukaryotic cell cycle in which chromosomes are at their second-most condensed and coiled stage (they are at their most condensed in anaphase).

S phase

S phase (synthesis phase) is the part of the cell cycle in which DNA is replicated, occurring between G1 phase and G2 phase.
