Solution

The correct option is B BB1,Y01
In humans with more than one X chromosome, the number of Barr bodies visible at interphase is always one fewer than the total number of X chromosomes. For example, men with Klinefelter syndrome (47, XXY karyotype) have a single Barr body, whereas women with a 47, XXX karyotype have two Barr bodies.

So, the correct answer is 'BB−1, Y0−1'.
