What chromosomes are affected with hurler syndrome?
Hurler syndrome is caused by a mutation in the gene located on chromosome 4 that provides instructions for producing an enzyme called alpha-L-iduronidase. This mutation leads to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans in the body, resulting in the various symptoms associated with the syndrome.
What can an extra chromosome do?
Having an extra chromosome, known as trisomy, can lead to genetic disorders such as Down syndrome (trisomy 21) or Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18). These disorders can affect physical and intellectual development, leading to characteristic features and health challenges. The specific impact of an extra chromosome varies depending on which chromosome is affected.
Compare and contrast Turners syndrome and Klinefelters syndrome?

Since males only carry one of these chromosomes, they are twice as likely to be affected by the mutation than females.
