Are klinefelter syndrome and Turner syndrome results of nondisjunction of autosomes?
No, they are nondisjunctions of the sex chromosomes (since in Turner syndrome you only have 1 sex chromosome and in Klinefelter syndrome you have 3).
What chromosome is affected in Turner Syndrome?
The chromosomes which are affected in Turner's Syndrome is the sex chromosomes. A normal female individual has 2 X sex chromosomes. In Turner's Syndrome, a woman only has one X chromosome and is missing the other. Thus, a woman with Turner's Syndrome has the sex chromosomes X0.
What causes disorders such as Klinefelter's syndrome and Turner syndrome?
non disjunction of sex chromosomes
What is an example of a disorder associated with an error in the number of chromosomes present?
Down syndrome (trisomy 21) is a disorder associated with an error in the number of chromosomes present. Other examples of disorders associated with an error in the number of chromosomes are Trisomy 18 (Edwards Syndrome), Trisomy 13 (Patau Syndrome), Triple X syndrome, and Klinefelter Syndrome.
How any chromosomes are in each human cell?
If you mean how many; there are 46, or 23 homologous pairs. There are 22 autosomal pairs and the sex chromosomes (X and X/Y). This can vary in some disorders, such as Down Syndrome, Turner Syndrome, Klinefelter's Syndrome, and Triple X Syndrome.

Which of the following are example(s) of trisomy---Turner Syndrome Down's Syndrome or Klinefelter's Syndrome?
Trisomy means having three copies of a chromosomes. Turner's syndrome is NOT an example of trisomy. Someone with Turner's syndrome has only one X chromosome. Down's syndrome IS an example of trisomy. Someone with Down's syndrome has 3 copies of chromosome 21. Klinefelter's syndrome is a tricky one. On one hand, it would be considered trisomy because they have 3 sex chromosomes. However, they are not all the SAME sex chromosomes. Someone with Klinefelter's has 2 X chromosomes and one Y chromosome.
What is the genetic event that results in Turner syndrome XO?
nondisjunction
Trisomy 21 Down syndrome xxy kleinfelter syndrome and xo turner syndrome are all caused by?
Nondisjunction -Trisomy 21(Down Syndrome) means there are 3 chromosomes on the 21st pair of chromosomes. -Kleinfelters (XXY) means there is an extra chromosome on the 23rd pair(where the sex chromosomes lie). -Turner Syndrome(XO) On the 23rd pair, there is no Y or second X chromosome. The female can survive with this.
What causes disorders sush as klinefelter syndrome and turner syndrome?
non disjunction of sex chromosomes
What type of disorders are karyotyping used to diagnose?
Chromosomal disorders can be observed in a human karyotype. It can show whether there are extra chromosomes, or missing chromosomes, or malformed chromosomes, or whether chromosomes have extra pieces, or missing pieces.
