No, only the gametes would be indicative of sterility. It is possible that the individual (though incredibly rare) to have "chimera" syndrome, where two non-identical twins merge to form one fetus. Turner's Syndrome is the absence of the male sex chromosome BTW. That chromosome carries little genetic information, and is possible during mitosis to "loose" it, but still create a mostly viable cell.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on the type of Turner syndrome.
There is one type in which all cells are affected, which is called classic Turners. The karyotype for classic Turners is 45x.
There is another type in which not all cells are affected. This is called Mosaic Turners. The karyotype for Mosaic Turners is 45x/46xx.

∙ 11y agoGenerally the answer would be yes since the reason any genetic testing would be done is if an individual had Turner's syndrome characteristics, however, an individual could be a chimera, where some cells have the correct cell complement and others do not. How a chimera was affected would hinge on which parts of the body were 2N and which were 2N-1.

Are there different types of turner syndrome?
There are 3 types of Turner syndrome Classic Turner syndrome - 45X - second X chromosome missing from all cells. Mosaic Turner syndrome - 45X/46XX - second X chromosome missing from some cells. The third type of Turner syndrome is when the second X chromosome is damaged or only partly missing.
How is Turners Syndrome transmitted?
Do you mean how do doctors test for Turner syndrome? It is a blood test to find out about the person's chromosomes, to see if the person is missing the second X chromosome.
What are characteristics of Turners syndrome?
Depending on the type of Turner syndrome a person has, their karyotype is either: 45X - classic Turner syndrome - second X chromosome missing from all cells 45X/46XX - Mosaic Turner syndrome - second X chromosome missing from some cells. There is another type of Turner syndrome, but it has a more complicated karyotype and I am not sure what the karyotype is off the top of my head.
Turner's syndrome individuals have which genotype?
A person with Turner's syndrome has a missing or damaged X chromosome in some or all of their cells. There are two possible karyotypes with Turner syndrome - 45X (The second X is missing from all cells) and 45X/46XX (The second X is missing from some cells).

What genes or chromosomes is the muitation that causes turners syndrome?
Turner syndrome is the result of one of the two X chromosomes being missing or damaged in some or all cells. These chromosomes are the sex chromosomes, which determine whether a person will be male or female. As people with Turners only have an X chromosome and no Y chromosome they are born female.

Does marfan syndrome occur more often in a certain ethnic group?
No. Marfan syndrome is found equally across all ethnicities and genders.
Are there treatments for olders girls with turners syndrome?
If a person is diagnosed in adolescence, depending on their age the doctor does a bone age x-ray to determine whether growth hormone is worth considering. The treatment for all adolescents and women with Turner syndrome is hormone replacement therapy.
Do hyperplasia of muscle cells occur in all muscle types?
Hyperplasia affects the all types of muscle cells.
Can celexa cause down syndrome?
No, down syndrome is caused by a genetic defect where there is an extra chromosome in most,if not all, of the cells of a body. it is not caused by a drug.
How many chromosomes are found in a nerve cell of a down syndrome person?
The same as all of the other cells.
What does the karyotype of a person with turners syndrome look like?
There are a few types of Turner syndrome. The most common two are: 1) Classic - The karyotype is 45X. The second X chromosome in missing from all cells. 2) Mosaic - The karotype is 45X/46XX. The second X chromosome is missing from some cells. 3) There are other types of Turner syndrome in which the second X is only partly missing or it is partly damaged.
