A male with XYY chromosomes more likely to have a boy child?

---

I'm doing some Research and i can't find out what the offspring of people with chromosomes paired differently would be. I know it is a slim chance, but what would the offspring of XYY and XXY?
Thank you!
well I did a chart. write xyy horizontally and write xxy vertically (or vice versa), then pair them up. I got, xx, xy, xy, xx,xy,xy, xy, yy, yy. Since you can't have a child with yy, just igorne that. So they have a boy to girl ratio of 5:2 (xx is a girl, and xy is a boy). Hope I help  (+ info)

Is it possible to have XYY in a man ?

---

What is the possibility of XYY in man because of one I saw on a CSI episode where he had it. My guess if it exists all of them are criminals right or wrong ? Also if it exists what are the extras you have for being a mutant ?
XYY is a genetic mutation basically, not everyone with this mutation is going to be a criminal no. but criminals that have this, it gives us a better understanding as to why. basically XYY, supermale, the extra Y is an extra boost of aggression and the normal things tied into being male. things are doubled like sexual organs, but he'll have more raging hormones and more agression.  (+ info)

You might try the following sites:

You can probably contact the parties involved with this study of siblings because that information is available at the site.

I'm not sure that the next site wil be as helpful:

You might also find info at the site below BUT you do need to be a member:
