Who is a supermale?
A supermale is someone who has the XYY "syndrome". Rarely (in about 0.1% of boys), there is an extra "Y" chromosome in their genes, caused by a random anomaly in the sperm cell. Many men who would have this would not necessarily know it. While they are slightly taller and more prone to learning difficulties than boys without the XYY karyotype, the typical stereotype of very aggressive, violent "supermales" has no basis in reality.
How did Joe Hin Tjio and Albert Levan discover XYY syndrom?

Which celebrities have turner syndrome besides Linda Hunter?
Yes, actress Linda Hunt was born with Turner's syndrome. There are definitely others, but she is the only one I know of.
What are examples of diseases caused by chromosomal mutation?
Down's Syndrome Kleinfelter's Syndrome
What common condition is caused by the presence of three copies of chromosome 21?
Most cases of Down syndrome result from trisomy 21, which means each cell in the body has three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two copies. The extra genetic material disrupts the normal course of development, causing the characteristic features of Down syndrome.Hope this helps.
What is the current research on XYY syndrome?
Current research on XYY syndrome is focused on understanding the link between the extra Y chromosome and the associated physical and behavioral characteristics of individuals with the condition. Studies are also exploring potential treatments and interventions to address the challenges that individuals with XYY syndrome may face, such as learning difficulties and behavioral issues. Additionally, research is investigating the genetic mechanisms underlying XYY syndrome to improve diagnosis and management of the condition.
Who discovered xyy syndrome?
by some person
What inherited syndrome is believed to be part of the make up of many serial killers?
XYY Syndrome
Evidence of John Wayne Gacy having the xyy syndrome?
I don't think there is any. Aurther Shawcross maybe, but not Gacy at least that I know of.
How many sexes are possible in chromosomes?
There are seven possible genetic sexes: XX = female XY = male X = female with Turner syndrome XXX = female with X-trisomy XXY = intersex with Klinefelter syndrome XYY = male with 47,XYY syndrome XXYY = male with 48,XXYY syndrome
How many chromosomes are there in a xyy male body cell?
You would have 47 chromosomes because you would have the normal 46 but one extra y with the sex determing pair of chromosomes which would make you have super male syndrome.
Which one of the following genotypes causes klinefelter syndrome xy xx xxy or xyy?
Yes, Klinefelter's syndrome is due to the XXY genotype.
Does Jacobs syndrome affect males or females?
Jacobs syndrome, also known as XYY syndrome, affects males. It is a genetic condition caused by the presence of an extra Y chromosome in males.
What is the cause of xyy syndrome and genetics?
XYY syndrome is caused by an extra Y chromosome in males. This condition typically occurs due to a random error in cell division during either the formation of the sperm or the egg. It is not inherited and does not have a clear genetic cause.
Who discovered 47 XYY?
The discovery of the 47 XYY syndrome was first reported by Patricia A. Jacobs and J.A. Strong in 1961. They described a male with an extra Y chromosome, leading to the identification of this chromosomal abnormality.
How is super male syndrome passed from parent to offspring?
Super male syndrome, also known as XYY syndrome, occurs when a male has an extra Y chromosome, resulting in a chromosomal pattern of XYY instead of the typical XY. This genetic condition arises during the formation of sperm, where an error in cell division leads to the extra Y chromosome. It can be passed from an affected father to his offspring if he contributes the extra Y chromosome during fertilization, resulting in a son with the XYY genotype. This syndrome is not inherited in a traditional Mendelian manner but rather occurs as a random event during sperm development.
What is XYZ Syndrome found commonly in Serial Killers?
XYY syndrome is an aneuploidy of the sex chromosomes in which a human male receives an extra Y chromosome. A popular misconception in the 1960s and 1970s that XYY males were more prone to criminal behavior led to several novels and TV series which exploited the idea with little regard to the science.
