Q

Explain the meiosis and mitosis errors that can happen in Turner

A

Meiosis errors usually occur in paternal gametes –> sperm missing the sex chromosome.

Mitosis errors occur after zygote formation –> loss of sex chromosome in some but not all cells –> mosaic karyotype (eg. 45,X/46XX). (45,X/46,XY)
