The examples of trisomy among the options provided are Down's syndrome and Klinefelter's Syndrome. In trisomy, individuals have three copies of a particular chromosome instead of the normal two. Down's syndrome is caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21 (Trisomy 21), making individuals have a total of 47 chromosomes in each cell. On the other hand, Klinefelter's Syndrome involves males having an extra X chromosome, resulting in an XXY karyotype, rather than the typical XY for males. However, Turner Syndrome is not an example of trisomy; instead, it involves the monosomy of the X chromosome (X0), where a female has only one X chromosome.

Among the options given, Down's Syndrome (Trisomy 21) and Klinefelter's Syndrome (XXY) are examples of trisomy. Turner Syndrome (XO) does not qualify as it involves a missing chromosome. Therefore, the correct examples of trisomy from your list are B and C.
