What is the genetic disorder in which an individual has an overall masculine development gynaecomastia, and is sterile?
1. Down's syndrome
2. Turner's syndrome
3. Klinefelter's syndrome
4. Edward syndrome

|---|---|---|---|
| (a) | XX–XO method of sex determination | (i) | Turner’s syndrome |
| (b) | XX–XY method of sex determination | (ii) | Female heterogametic |
| (c) | Karyotype – 45 | (iii) | Grasshopper |
| (d) | ZW–ZZ method of sex determination | (iv) | Female homogametic |

In which genetic condition, each cell in the affected person, has three sex chromosomes XXY?
1. Thalassemia
2. Klinefelter's Syndrome
3. Phenylketonuria
4. Turner's Syndrome
A human female with Turner's syndrome:
1. has 45 chromosomes with XO
2. has one additional chromosome.
3. exhibit male character
4. is able to produce children with a normal husband.
| 1. | Klinefelter's syndrome-44 autosomes + XXY |
| 2. | Colourblindness – Y-linked |
| 3. | Erythroblastosis foetalis-- X-linked |
| 4. | Down syndrome--44 autosomes + XO |
In Drosophila the XXY condition leads to femaleness whereas in human beings the same condition leads to Klinefelter's syndrome in males. It proves:
| 1. | In human beings, the Y chromosome is active in sex determination. |
| 2. | Y chromosome is active in sex determination in both human beings and Drosophila. |
| 3. | In Drosophila Y-chromosome decides femaleness. |
| 4. | The Y chromosome of man has genes for the syndrome. |
