The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Turner Syndrome**: Turner syndrome is a genetic condition that affects females, characterized by the absence or structural abnormalities of one of the X chromosomes. This leads to various physical and developmental features. 2. **Identifying Characteristics of Turner Syndrome**: Some common characteristics of Turner syndrome include: - Webbed neck - Low-set ears - Gynecomastia (though more commonly associated with males, it can occur in females with Turner syndrome due to hormonal imbalances) - Gonadal dysgenesis (underdevelopment of the ovaries) 3. **Analyzing the Options**: The question asks which of the following is NOT a characteristic of Turner syndrome. The options provided likely include: - Webbed neck - Low-set ears - Gynecomastia - Sterility 4. **Determining the Incorrect Characteristic**: Among the listed characteristics, sterility is not a direct characteristic of Turner syndrome. While individuals with Turner syndrome may experience fertility issues due to gonadal dysgenesis, sterility itself is not a defining characteristic. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question "Which of the following is not a character of Turner syndrome?" is **sterility**. ---
