If you are pregnant there are many thoughts running through your mind including the potential health of your unborn baby. There is no guarantee the baby will be free if the genetic testing comes back clear, however, there is a good chance all will be well. If you have any concerns, talk to your doctor.
An inherited disorder that appears more often in males than females is likely caused by a recessive gene located on the X chromosome. Since males have only one X chromosome (XY), a single copy of the mutated gene can manifest as the disorder. In contrast, females have two X chromosomes (XX), so they would need two copies of the mutated gene to express the disorder, making it less common in females. This pattern is characteristic of X-linked recessive disorders.
monosomy. This term refers to the condition where an individual is missing one copy of a particular chromosome and only has one copy instead of the normal two.
Color blindness is an inherited disorder that appears more often in males than females. The most common form is red-green color blindness, which is due to a mutation on the X chromosome that is more likely to affect males since they have only one X chromosome.
Yes, a Barr body is an inactivated X chromosome seen in the nuclei of female mammals. It appears as a small, dense, dark-staining body due to the condensation of the chromatin, which is a result of X chromosome inactivation to equalize gene expression between males and females.
The notation "Ne 3s2" seems to reference an electron configuration, but it appears to be a bit misleading. Neon (Ne) has the atomic number 10 and its electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶. The "3s2" part suggests an electron configuration for a different element, specifically for magnesium (Mg), which has the configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² and an atomic number of 12.
Many sex-linked genes are found on the X chromosome. More than 100 sex-linked genetic disorders have now been mapped to the X chromosome. The human Y chromosome is much smaller than the X chromosome and appears to contain only few genes.
It appears that on the B4, there is a gene that reinforces nicotine dependence.
Both syndrome's indicate the presence of a 47th chromosome (or extra part of a chromosome). Most humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, totaling 46 chromosomes. For Down's syndrome, the 47th chromosome appears with the 21st pairing. For Klinefelter's syndrome the 47th chromosome appears with the 26th pairing (the gender chromosomes.)

There appears to be a configuration error. You have associated Konqueror with application/x-msdos-program, but it cannot handle this file type.
Generally the trait is on the X chromosome, as the Y is rather small and full of deleterious mutations and has few working genes. But and trait that is located on a sex chromosome is said to be sex linked. Naturally, women have two, XX, chromosomes, so ore protected statistically from many sex linked recessive disorders.
monosomy. This term refers to the condition where an individual is missing one copy of a particular chromosome and only has one copy instead of the normal two.
Pigmentation disorders can cause the skin to be darker or lighter than normal. They may also cause spots or skin that appears to have smooth white patches.
Color blindness is an inherited disorder that appears more often in males than females. The most common form is red-green color blindness, which is due to a mutation on the X chromosome that is more likely to affect males since they have only one X chromosome.
Initial Configuration Tasks
Some patients have only one or two episodes of factitious disorders; others develop a chronic form that may be lifelong. Successful treatment of the chronic form appears to be rare.
