These are conditions where the number of chromosomes is different, yaar. Down syndrome means an extra 21st chromosome, Klinefelter is XXY in males, and Turner is a single X in females. Studying for the exam, I remember the karyotypes like a ledger sheet—balanced or not.
My regret is not learning this earlier, when my sister's child was born with a heart they said was linked to such things. I only sold tea and biscuits then, not this knowledge that could have comforted.
