Yes, individuals with XXY chromosomes (Klinefelter syndrome) can still father children. However, they may have reduced fertility due to lower sperm count and quality. It is advisable for them to consult a healthcare provider for fertility options.
A male with the sex chromosomes XXY would have Klinefelter syndrome, a genetic condition that can result in low testosterone, reduced fertility, and other possible physical and developmental traits.
Normal male humans have the sex chromosomes XY. The presence of the Y chromosome determines sex in humans - so a person with XXY will be male.
An embryo, male or female, usually has two sex chromosomes, one from mom, one from dad. In a male's case, they would be XY. Rarely, nondisjunction occurs, and a child winds up XXX, XXY, XYY, or X. XXX and X become female, and XXY and XYY become male. So, it is theoretically possible for a male embryo to have three sex chromosomes.
It is the father's contribution that determines the sex of the offspring. Of the XX and XY pairs that determine sex, the mother always contributes an X. If the father contributes an X as well, the offspring is female. If the father contributes a Y, the offspring is male.
A male with XXY sex chromosomes has a condition called Klinefelter syndrome. This can lead to infertility, reduced testosterone levels, and potential physical characteristics like taller height and less body hair. Treatment may involve hormone therapy to alleviate symptoms.

A baby with XXY sex chromosomes typically has Klinefelter syndrome, which is associated with male development. However, individuals with XXY chromosomes can have a range of physical and developmental differences. It's important to remember that gender identity is separate from biological sex.
Normal male humans have the sex chromosomes XY. The presence of the Y chromosome determines sex in humans - so a person with XXY will be male.
No. Do to the fact that when parents pass on the genes the father only ever gives the Y. What happens in XXY is that for some reason the mother gives both X's or potentially their is a defect with the replication of the cell during development. So while their is a small chance it is not very likely. Also you have to realize the a male with XXY is most likely going to be sterile, however this is not always the case.

Yes. A karyotype will show the chromosomes and an affected person will have XXY instead of XY for a normal male.
A male with XXY chromosome combination has a condition called Klinefelter syndrome. This can lead to reduced fertility, but not complete sterility. These individuals can father children with assisted reproductive technologies.
XXY. Klinefelter is caused when the X chromosomes of the mother fail to split, or an XY sperm reaches an X egg, resulting in a mostly male child.
Individuals with Klinefelter's syndrome have an extra X chromosome, resulting in a total of 47 chromosomes, with the usual sex chromosomes XX for females and XY for males being XXY in individuals with Klinefelter's syndrome.
This combination XXY produces a male child with Klinefelter's Syndrome.
