Correct Answer: Turner Syndrome


Solution : The correct option is Turner Syndrome .

Turner syndrome is not a Mendelian disorder. Turner syndrome is a chromosomal disorder that results from the complete or partial absence of one of the X chromosomes in females. It is often characterised by short stature and other physical abnormalities. This disorder affects females.

Mendelian disorders are typically single-gene disorders that follow the principles of Mendelian inheritance, such as autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked patterns.
