They get Klinefelter syndrome. They have male sex organs, but the testes are abnormally small and the man is sterile. Even though the extra X is inactivated, some breast enlargement and other female body characteristics are common.

What chromosome tells us the sex of a human?
The X and Y sex chromosomes. If the embryo inherits an X and Y chromosome, it will be male. If the embryo inherits two X chromosomes, it will be female.
Who does a male child inherit his X chromosome from?
yes, some people have xxy chromosomes, a genetic mutation. Although I'm not sure if the extra chromosome is from the fathers sperm or sex cell. Hope this helps :)
Why will a male inhert x liked recessive gene from is dad?
A male inherits his X chromosome from his mother and his Y chromosome from his father. Therefore, he cannot inherit an X-linked recessive gene directly from his dad, as fathers pass their Y chromosome to their sons. If a male has an X-linked recessive condition, it must come from his mother, who can pass on the affected X chromosome. In summary, males inherit X-linked traits only from their mothers.
Why does a sex-linked trait only require one recessive allele on the X chromosome of a male to show the phenotype?
Because males have only one X chromosome, any recessive allele present on that X chromosome will be expressed in the phenotype. In females, who have two X chromosomes, the presence of a dominant allele on one X chromosome can mask the expression of a recessive allele on the other X chromosome.
What is klien felter's syndrome?
Klinefelter syndrome is a genetic condition where males have an extra X chromosome (XXY instead of XY). This can lead to development of smaller testes, reduced fertility, and potential for other physical and developmental differences. Treatment may involve hormone therapy and support services.
What chromosome tells us the sex of a human?
The X and Y sex chromosomes. If the embryo inherits an X and Y chromosome, it will be male. If the embryo inherits two X chromosomes, it will be female.
What chromosome is klinefelters syndrome located on?
they have a extra chromosome, a normal male is XY, a male with klinefelters is XXY.
Who does a male child inherit his X chromosome from?
yes, some people have xxy chromosomes, a genetic mutation. Although I'm not sure if the extra chromosome is from the fathers sperm or sex cell. Hope this helps :)
What is Y chromosomes?
A Y Chromosome is a mammalian sex chromosome which occurs only in male cells.
Why x-linked recessive more frequent in male in mammal?
A male inherits only one X sex chromosome, so whatever alleles are on that chromosome will be expressed. A female inherits two X sex chromosomes, so there is a possibility that she will inherit at least one dominant allele for a trait, in which case she will have the dominant trait.
Is klinefelter syndrome chomosomal mutation?
Klinefelters syndrome occurs in a male and it is when they carry and extra X chromosome having a total of 47chromosomes rather than the usual 46. Thus resulting in a chromosomal mutation.
What do you call a male that inherits something?
A male beneficiary.
Why does a sex-linked trait only require one recessive allele on the X chromosome of a male to show the phenotype?
Because males have only one X chromosome, any recessive allele present on that X chromosome will be expressed in the phenotype. In females, who have two X chromosomes, the presence of a dominant allele on one X chromosome can mask the expression of a recessive allele on the other X chromosome.
Is Klinefelter Syndrome sex-linked or autosomal?
Klinefelter Syndrome is sex-linked, because it is a genetic defect that results in a male having an extra X chromosome.
How is a male offspring formed?
Answer A man and woman get together hopefully out of love, they have intercourse and during the intercourse, the man ejackulates inside the woman's vagina. In the sperm there are thousands of eggs that a man leaves inside the woman, she fertilizes them and with good luck, she gets pregnant and the couple concerned has a baby.
Does the male or female pass colorblindess to the offspring?
It is on the X Chromosome (male have XY chromosome Females have XX Chromosome)
Is it true that a person who inherits two X chromosomes will be a male?
Answer:This is not true. If you inherit two X chromosomes you will be a girl. A boy has a X and a Y chromosome. I don't know for sure, but I think so. After all, the numbers xs are greater than ysAnswer:No, it isn't. A person with XY chromosomes is male. Two X chromosomes is female.Answer:It is possible but they have to inherit a Y chromosomes. It called Klinefelter's syndrome (KS). KS has two X chromosomes and one Y chromosome. They can grow breast and have an ovary and have anger problems. Most men like this in up in prison.
