The Lyon hypothesis states that in cells with multiple X chromosomes, all but one are inactivated during mammalian embryogenesis. #barrBodies #Enbriogenesiss #xChromosomeInactivation #biology #NikolaysGeneticsLessons #barrBody #genetics #chromosome #Karyotype #tokoph #catalystUniversity #biochemistry #physiology #XChromosome #yChromosome #geneSilencing #XlinkedTraits #lyonisation #dosageCompensation #barrBodyFromCheekEpithelialCells #barrBodyFromWhiteBloodCellsWBCs #drumstickBarrBody #neutrophilBarrBody #barrBodyTemporarySlideMount #cytology
