Haploidy is defined as either the gametophytic chromosome (and gene) number or the basic chromosome number of a taxon (usually family), also referred to as the monoploid number or “x” depending on the systematic context.

Turner syndrome is a genetic condition caused by an abnormality on one of your sex chromosomes. It's also called monosomy X, gonadal dysgenesis, and Bonnevie-Ullrich syndrome. Only the female sex develops this condition. Turner syndrome occurs when part or all of one of your X chromosomes is missing.

Mosaicism is a condition in which cells within the same person have a different genetic makeup. This condition can affect any type of cell, including: Blood cells. Egg and sperm cells.

Triploidy is a rare chromosomal abnormality. Triploidy is the presence of an additional set of chromosomes in the cell for a total of 69 chromosomes rather than the normal 46 chromosomes per cell. The extra set of chromosomes originates either from the father or the mother during fertilization.

Sometimes a section from one chromosome of a particular pair changes places with a section from a chromosome of another pair. When the two breaks do not pass through a gene and there is no gain or loss of material when the chromosomes are looked at under a microscope, it is called a balanced translocation.
