Klinefelter syndrome in humans leads to underdeveloped testes and sterility. this is caused by which chromosomal condition?
1 answer:
Klinfelters syndrome is when there is an extra X chromosome in males.
So instead of the normal sex chromosomes for males (XY), a male with klinefelters syndrome will have XXY.
I have included a pic of the karyotype to give you a better idea of what I'm talking about.
Hope this helps! I'm happy to help with any other questions you might have :)
