A biological male.
A karyotype can detect Turner syndrome by revealing a single X chromosome in females (45,X). This genetic condition is characterized by the absence of one X chromosome, which is visible on a karyotype analysis.
A male would have an X chromosome that literally looks like an X and Y chromosome that still resembles a X but is smaller like a lowercase x. A female would have two X chromosomes
A normal human female has a karyotype of 46, XX, which means she has 46 chromosomes arranged in 23 pairs, with the 23rd pair being two X chromosomes.
The sex of an individual can be determined by analyzing the karyotype for the presence of sex chromosomes. A karyotype with two X chromosomes is typically female (XX), while a karyotype with one X and one Y chromosome is typically male (XY). This distinction is made based on the presence or absence of the Y chromosome, which carries genes related to male development.
Karyotype is a test to identify the number and appearance of chromosomes in a sample of cells. It can help determine biological sex if chromosomes X and Y are present (male) or if there are two X chromosomes (female).
The pair of sex chromosomes (X and Y) is not homologous in a normal male karyotype. Males have one X and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes.
A karyotype will do that.
The second X chromosome other females have.
This particular karyotype has 45 chromosomes (instead of the usual 46). "XO" tells us that the karyotype is missing a sex chromosome: the individual has an X, but no homologous sex chromosome (X or Y) to complete the diploid pair.
It means they are female.
Individuals with Klinefelter syndrome typically have an extra X chromosome, resulting in a karyotype of 47,XXY. This chromosomal abnormality can cause developmental and reproductive issues in affected individuals.
The karyotype notation 45,XX,-5 indicates a female individual with 45 chromosomes, including two X chromosomes. The "-5" suggests the loss of one copy of chromosome 5. This type of karyotype abnormality can be associated with certain genetic disorders or diseases.
