The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "A person with chromosome complement of XXX is," we will analyze the options provided and determine which one corresponds to the XXX chromosome complement. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Chromosome Complement**: - The chromosome complement of XXX indicates that there are three X chromosomes present. This is a specific chromosomal arrangement that can lead to certain syndromes. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A: Klinefelter Syndrome**: - Klinefelter syndrome occurs in males who have an extra X chromosome, resulting in a chromosome complement of XXY. Therefore, this option is incorrect for XXX. - **Option B: Down Syndrome**: - Down syndrome is caused by trisomy of chromosome 21, which means there is an extra copy of the 21st chromosome (47 chromosomes total, with 3 copies of chromosome 21). This is unrelated to the sex chromosomes and thus incorrect for XXX. - **Option C: Turner Syndrome**: - Turner syndrome occurs in females who have only one X chromosome (45 chromosomes total, with a chromosome complement of X0). This means one X chromosome is missing, making this option incorrect for XXX. - **Option D: Super Female**: - The term "super female" refers to individuals with an XXX chromosome complement. This condition is also known as Triple X syndrome, where females have an extra X chromosome, resulting in a total of three X chromosomes. Therefore, this option is correct. 3. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is **Option D: Super Female**.
