Verified step by step guidance

Understand the genetic basis of Turner syndrome: Turner syndrome is a chromosomal disorder affecting females, where one of the X chromosomes is missing or partially missing. This results in a 45,X karyotype, meaning there is only one X chromosome present.

Identify the typical characteristics of Turner syndrome: Common features include short stature, webbed neck, and ovarian dysfunction. These are due to the absence of the second X chromosome, which affects development.

Consider the presence of a Y chromosome: Turner syndrome is characterized by the absence of a Y chromosome. Individuals with Turner syndrome have only one X chromosome and no Y chromosome, which is why they are phenotypically female.

Compare the options given: Evaluate each option to determine which is not typical of Turner syndrome. The presence of a Y chromosome is not typical because Turner syndrome involves a missing or incomplete X chromosome, not the presence of a Y chromosome.

Conclude which option is not typical: Based on the understanding of Turner syndrome, the presence of a Y chromosome is not typical of the condition, as it is characterized by the absence of a Y chromosome and the presence of only one X chromosome.
