Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A karyotype is the image of all the chromosomes of an organism that are arranged into pairs based on their staining pattern and decreasing size, with sex chromosomes last. Chromogram and chromotype are not commonly used terms in genetics, genome map refers to the physical map of an organism's DNA, and linkage map shows the relative location of genes on a chromosome.
