Turner Syndrome!
Because women with the disorder only have one X chromosome
The genotype XO results from the absence of a second sex chromosome in an individual. This condition is known as Turner syndrome and is characterized by a single X chromosome in females instead of the usual two. It can lead to various developmental and physical abnormalities.
The karyotype of an XO human would be deficient one X chromosome, compared to that of a normal female, and it would result in a female. Normal human females only use one X chromosome, whereby one is inactivated, which is why an XO human is viable. An XXY human would have one extra X chromosome as compared to that of a normal male, and it would result in a male. Again, an X chromosome is inactivated, which is why an XXY human is viable. XO is referred to as Turner Syndrome. XXY is referred to as Klinefelter Syndrome.
The genotype for this condition is Turner syndrome, which is characterized by a single X chromosome (usually denoted as 45,X). This results in a female individual with certain physical characteristics and potential health complications.
Chromosomal abnormality is a broader term, describing duplications, loss, gain etc, of a particular chromosome. More related to the structures in an ideogram.Genetic disorder is a much broader term that describes any chromosomal or genetic changes. A disease condition.
A person with Turner syndrome typically has female characteristics, but may have some physical features mirroring male traits, such as a broad chest or a low hairline. The presence of one Barr body in their cells is normal, as individuals with Turner syndrome have a single X chromosome.
The 23rd pair of chromosomes in humans is the sex chromosomes, with females having two X chromosomes (XX) and males having one X and one Y chromosome (XY). Any abnormality in this pair can lead to conditions such as Turner syndrome (XO), Klinefelter syndrome (XXY), or Triple X syndrome (XXX).
The genotype XO results from the absence of a second sex chromosome in an individual. This condition is known as Turner syndrome and is characterized by a single X chromosome in females instead of the usual two. It can lead to various developmental and physical abnormalities.
Girls with Turner's syndrome
If one of sex chromosomes is missing. Normal-XX Turner- XO
The XO condition is known as Turner's Syndrome.
The karyotype of an XO human would be deficient one X chromosome, compared to that of a normal female, and it would result in a female. Normal human females only use one X chromosome, whereby one is inactivated, which is why an XO human is viable. An XXY human would have one extra X chromosome as compared to that of a normal male, and it would result in a male. Again, an X chromosome is inactivated, which is why an XXY human is viable. XO is referred to as Turner Syndrome. XXY is referred to as Klinefelter Syndrome.
No, Klinefelter syndrome and Turner syndrome are the result of nondisjunction of sex chromosomes. Klinefelter syndrome is caused by an extra X chromosome (XXY), while Turner syndrome is due to a missing X chromosome (XO).
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.
That isn't physically possible. All XO individuals are females with Turner's syndrome. Individuals with only a Y chromosome do not survive.
The genotype for this condition is Turner syndrome, which is characterized by a single X chromosome (usually denoted as 45,X). This results in a female individual with certain physical characteristics and potential health complications.
The term is monosomy, in which one chromosome of a pair is missing. Turner's Syndrome is an example of monosomy, in which there is only one sex chromosome, which is the X chromosome. Humans with Turner's Syndrome are female, but sterile. The genotype of the sex chromosomes in Turner's Syndrome is XO, in which O represents a missing chromosome.
