Secondary constriction

93: 28: 135:" (NORs). The nucleolus in the nucleus remains associated with the NOR of the secondary constriction area. In humans, the number of NORs is equal to the number of nucleoli, which is ten. However, not all secondary constrictions are NORs. The formations of nucleoli takes place around the NOR region. The secondary constriction also contains the 127:, as chromosomes can only bend at the site of primary constriction. Secondary constrictions are useful in identifying a chromosome from a set. There are either 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 secondary constriction sites in a cell at anaphase. Some parts of these constrictions indicate sites of 194:"Evolutionary aspects of the ZZ/ZW sex chromosome system in the Characidae fish, genus Triportheus.
