The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding Turner's syndrome and the associated statements, we can break it down into a step-by-step analysis. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Turner's Syndrome**: - Turner's syndrome is a genetic disorder that occurs in females when one of the X chromosomes is missing or partially missing. This results in a total of 45 chromosomes (44 autosomes + 1 X chromosome, denoted as 45,X or 44 + X0). 2. **Assertion Analysis**: - The assertion states: "Turner's syndrome generally does not occur in males." - This statement is **true** because Turner's syndrome is specifically a condition that affects females due to the absence of one X chromosome. Males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY), and thus cannot have Turner's syndrome. 3. **Reason Analysis**: - The reason states: "Fetus with 44 + YO complement generally dies." - This statement is **false**. A fetus with a 44 + Y0 complement (meaning it has 44 autosomes and no X chromosome) cannot survive because it lacks the necessary genetic material for development. However, the correct notation for Turner's syndrome is 44 + X0, not Y0. A Y chromosome without an accompanying X chromosome cannot support fetal development. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since the assertion is true and the reason is false, we conclude that the correct relationship is that the assertion is true, and the reason is false. ### Final Answer: - The correct option is: **Assertion is true, Reason is false.**
