The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the listed genetic conditions is correctly matched with its chromosomal condition, we will analyze each option one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Sickle Cell Anemia**: - Sickle cell anemia is caused by a mutation in the hemoglobin gene. - The condition is characterized by the presence of two copies of the mutated gene (HBS), leading to the homozygous condition (HBS/HBS). - The statement mentions a heterozygous condition (HBS/HBA), which would only make the individual a carrier, not affected by the disease. - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. 2. **Down Syndrome**: - Down syndrome is caused by the presence of an extra chromosome 21, a condition known as trisomy 21. - The statement incorrectly states that it involves trisomy of chromosome 22. - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. 3. **Turner Syndrome**: - Turner syndrome affects females and is characterized by the absence of one X chromosome, leading to the chromosomal condition XO. - The statement correctly identifies the chromosomal condition associated with Turner syndrome. - **Conclusion**: This option is correct. 4. **Klinefelter Syndrome**: - Klinefelter syndrome occurs in males and is characterized by the presence of an extra X chromosome, resulting in the chromosomal condition XXY. - The statement incorrectly mentions that it is due to failure of cytokinesis after telophase, which is not the cause of Klinefelter syndrome. - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. ### Final Answer: The only correctly matched condition is **Turner Syndrome (XO)**.
