Dr. Malcolm A. Ferguson-Smith of Johns Hopkins reported that in Mongolism, where an extra chromosome has been found, the anomaly appears to be the result of a failure in subdivision, traceable to the maternal egg. In a wide range of sex abnormalities related to hermaphroditism. the number of chromosomes may range from 45 to 48. Among the anomalies, "super females" with three X (female) chromosomes...
