With Turner's Syndrome, the females actually have 1 less chromosome, not an extra one or sometimes only part of the X chromosome is missing. Klinefelter's syndrome, 47, XXY, or XXY syndrome is a condition in which human males have an extra X chromosome. While females have an XX chromosomal makeup, and males an XY, affected individuals have at least two X chromosomes and at least one Y chromosome.
