    B)  \[44+xyy\]

    C)  \[44+xxx\]          

    D)  \[44+xxyy.\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

This inactive X chromosome condenses (hetero- chromatic) and can be seen as barr body. In abnormal individuals with more than two X chromosomes, only one remains active, while the others form the sex chromatin.
