XYY disorder is a hereditary condition in which a human male has an additional male (Y) chromosome, giving an aggregate of 47 chromosomes rather than the more regular 46. The "XYY" chromosome hypothesis drop out of support as a clarification for criminal conduct is on account of thought most lawbreakers don't have XYY and everybody with XYY is not a criminal
