Human Genetics

Turner's syndrome is caused by sex chromosomal aneuploidy where there is an absence of one sex chromosome, typically XO. It is characterized by a short stature and webbed neck. Klinefelter's syndrome is when a male has an extra X chromosome, resulting in XXY. Symptoms include enlarged breasts, sparse body hair, and infertility. Both conditions result from a monosomic condition where there is a missing or extra sex chromosome.
