What Causes Turners Syndrome.?


I Know that it is caused by something that goes wrong in meiosis but what exactly is it that goes wrong?

we went over it in school but, i didnt quite get it.

In Turner syndrome, the girl does not have the usual pair of two complete X chromosomes. The most common scenario is that the girl has only one X chromosome in her cells. Some girls with Turner syndrome do have two X chromosomes, but one of the X chromosomes is incomplete. In another scenario, the girl has some cells in her body with two X chromosomes, but other cells have only one.
