It is especially bright by Q-banding, due to the AT-richness of its satellite DNA (Fig. 17.1). The Y chromosome contains some DNA sequences that are found only on the Y It is therefore pos

In females, one X chromosome is condensed throughout interphase and is frequently visible in epithelial cells as a Barr body, or X heterochromatin. It is visible as a drumstick-shaped extrusion in 1–5% of polymorphonuclear white blood cells (Fig. 18.1a). The Barr body con
