- BTurner's syndrome
- CKlinefelter's syndrome

Correct answer
C. Klinefelter's syndrome
Step-by-step solution
Klinefelter's syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of an extra X chromosome in males, resulting in a 47, XXY karyotype.
Individuals with this syndrome are genetically male and have overall masculine development, but the extra X chromosome leads to the development of some feminine characteristics, such as gynecomastia (breast development).
They also have underdeveloped testes, which leads to an absence of spermatogenesis, making them sterile.
