Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Klinefelter syndrome is a genetic condition that results from the presence of an extra X chromosome, causing individuals with the condition to have one or more extra X chromosomes in addition to the normal male XY chromosome pair. This results in underdeveloped testes and lower levels of testosterone production, so choice D is also incorrect. However, having an extra X chromosome does not result in higher production of testosterone, making choice C incorrect. Choice A is correct as individuals with Klinefelter syndrome have two or more X chromosomes, and choice B is incorrect as they have one Y and at least one X chromosome.
