How do people inherit cat eye syndrome?
Cat eye syndrome is typically caused by a chromosomal abnormality involving the duplication of genetic material on chromosome 22, specifically in the 22q11.2 region. It can occur as a spontaneous mutation or be inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, meaning only one copy of the altered gene is sufficient to cause the syndrome. This means that if a parent has the condition, there is a 50% chance of passing it on to their child. Genetic counseling is often recommended for affected families to understand the risks and implications.

Klinefelter's syndrome and XXY males are conditions that are caused by?
Normal humans have 46 chromosomes (23 from each parent). Males with Klinefelter's Syndrome have 47 chromosomes and therefore have acquired an extra chromosome from a parent (hopefully a more knowledgeable contributor will say if it is from the male or female parent). A lot of studies have been done on the male calico cat. Back in the 1980's if one found a male calico cat that was NOT sterile, the cat was worth about 30K... a lot of money for that time period. I am not sure if similar hunts are currently underway.

What is crying cat syndrome?
Cri du chat (French for "cry of the cat" or "cat's cry") syndrome is a rare genetic defect in humans. It is caused by a deletion of the short arrn of chromosome 5 (called 5p). Babies with this syndrome often have a characteristic high-pitched cry that sounds like a cat. Jérôme Lejeune discovered the cause of cri du chat syndrome in 1964. Five years previously, he had discovered the chromosome abnormality that causes Down syndrome in humans.
