A schematic cytogenetics illustration depicts a Robertsonian translocation. Two acrocentric chromosomes show breakpoints near their centromeres; their long arms (q arms) fuse into a single derivative chromosome while the short arms (p arms) are lost. The figure represents a chromosomal structural rearrangement (ROB, Robertsonian translocation) occurring within the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. In genetics and pathology, this event reduces chromosome number and may create balanced carriers or generate unbalanced gametes during meiosis.
