The correct Answer is:
To determine which option is correctly matched, we will analyze each option provided in the question step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Erythroblastosis Syndrome**: - This condition occurs when an Rh-negative mother is pregnant with an Rh-positive child, typically when the father is Rh-positive. - The mother's immune system may produce antibodies against the Rh factor, leading to complications in subsequent pregnancies. - This condition is classified as an autoimmune disorder, not an X-linked disorder. - **Conclusion**: This option is **incorrect**. 2. **Down Syndrome**: - Down syndrome is caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21, known as trisomy 21. - The typical chromosomal notation for Down syndrome is 47 chromosomes, with the composition being 45 + XX or 45 + XY (indicating the presence of an extra chromosome). - Since no specific matching description is given in the option, we cannot confirm it as correctly matched. - **Conclusion**: This option is **incorrect**. 3. **Klinefelter Syndrome**: - Klinefelter syndrome is characterized by the presence of one or more extra X chromosomes in males. - The typical chromosomal notation for Klinefelter syndrome is 47 chromosomes, with the composition being 44 + XXY, 44 + XXXY, or even 44 + XXXXXY (indicating the presence of additional X chromosomes). - This matches the description provided in the option. - **Conclusion**: This option is **correct**. 4. **Color Blindness**: - Color blindness is primarily an X-linked recessive disorder, meaning it is carried on the X chromosome and affects males more frequently. - It is not a Y-linked disorder. - **Conclusion**: This option is **incorrect**. ### Final Conclusion: The only correctly matched pair is **Klinefelter syndrome**, which is represented as 44 + XXY. ---
