Which of the following abnormality, resulted from the inheritance of an unbalanced complement of chromosomes can be diagnosed by karyotyping?

  • A.Down’s syndrome
  • B.Turner’s syndrome
  • C.Klinefelter’s syndrome
  • D.all of these

Answer: D

Correct answer: all of these

All three arise from an abnormal chromosome complement and are therefore visible in a karyotype: Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21), Turner’s syndrome (a single X), and Klinefelter’s syndrome (XXY). Karyotyping detects whole-chromosome faults; it cannot show a single-gene mutation.
