It doesn't. Mud thrown once sticks no. Someone back in the 60's thought that it did - even though their statistical moderation was off. No connection has been found linking criminality with any form of aneuploidy. http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/Education-resources/Teaching-and-education/big-picture/all-issues/sex-and-gender/articles/wtx028518.htm

Why did the XYY chromosome theory fall out of favor as an explanation for criminal behavior?
The XYY chromosome theory fell out of favor as an explanation for criminal behavior because subsequent research did not support a direct link between XYY genotype and criminal behavior. It was found that the association was weak and other factors such as social environment and upbringing play a more significant role in shaping criminal behavior.
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.
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.
What inherited syndrome is believed to be part of the make up of many serial killers?
XYY Syndrome
Who discovered xyy syndrome?
by some person
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.
Is criminal act caused by nature or nurture?
Honestly, if you think about... Both. Have you ever heard about "XYY Syndrome"?, i believe that's what it was called. I read a couple backs that went to show that people with XYY syndrome are more likely to be related in criminal activity then those who have regular amount of chromosomes, and of course there are other genetic type reasons. Now when it comes to environment and social type issues, this has a lot to do with criminal act as well. Many people who commit crime do it by simply learning, imitating-basically observing others. Peoples social life, activities, even families have a big role in ones behaviour, thoughts, etc. Hope this gave you an idea of where I'm coming from. - Azad Prestek
