Solution

The correct option is C Down's syndrome
  • Klinefelter syndrome is a chromosomal condition that affects male physical and cognitive development.
  • Turner syndrome is a condition in which a female is partly or completely missing an X chromosome.
  • Down's syndrome is a condition in which a child is born with an extra copy of their 21st chromosome
  • Research says that the increased risk of dementia in individuals with Down syndrome may also result from the extra gene. As with all adults, advancing age also increases the chances a person with Down syndrome will develop Alzheimer's disease.
  • So, the correct answer is' Down's syndrome'.
