No, men have an X and a Y, while women have two X's.
{They don't usually, but...
'There is a whole lot more to maleness and femaleness than X or Y chromosomes. About 1 in 20,000 men has no Y chromosome, instead having 2 Xs. This means that in the United States there are about 7,500 men without a Y chromosome. The equivalent situation - females who have XY instead of XX chromosomes - can occur for a variety of reasons and overall is similar in frequency'.}

Is there an X or Y chromosome in an egg?
An egg will have the X chromosome and the sperm will have an X or Y chromosome.
What sex chromosome does a human egg cell contain?
The sex chromosome typically carried by an ovum is X-chromosome. The sperm may carry either x or y sex chromosome.
What kind of chromosome do females transmit of offspring?
Female transmit 23 chromosomes to the offspring. She has that unique chromosome called as X chromosome. This is transmitted to the offspring. From male you get either X or Y chromosome. From XX chromosome you get female child. From XY chromosome you get male child.
What do you call it when the sperm provides a Y chromosome and the egg provides an X chromosome?
a girl
Is huntingston disease x or y chromosome?
neither. It is on chromosome 4, of which both males and females have two copies.

If an egg is fertilized by a sprem containing a y chromosome the fertilized egg?
If an egg is fertilized by a sperm containing a Y chromosome, the egg would mature into a fetus which would then mature into a male offspring
How do you become a boy or girl?
Sex is determined by a pair of sex chromosomes. Males have XY chromosomes and females have XX chromosomes. In the fertilization stage where the sperm combines with the egg, the sex of the offspring depends on whether the sperm carries a X or Y chromosome. The ovum always carries a X chromosome because females only have X chromosomes. So, if the sperm carries the X chromosome, the offspring will have XX chromosome and becomes a girl. If it carries the Y, the baby becomes a boy. X (sperm) + X (egg) = XX (female) Y (sperm) + X (egg) = XY (male)
What do you call it when the sperm provides a Y chromosome and the egg provides an X chromosome?
a girl
Is huntingston disease x or y chromosome?
neither. It is on chromosome 4, of which both males and females have two copies.
Is a female 2 X chromosomes?
Yes, and males have an X and a Y chromosome.
Which genetic disease is it when someone only has a y chromosome but no x chromosome?
That isn't physically possible. All XO individuals are females with Turner's syndrome. Individuals with only a Y chromosome do not survive.
Who has y chromosomes?
In humans, males have one Y chromosome and one x chromosome in addition to 44 other chromosomes, females have two Xs. Because of errors in gamete (egg or sperm) production, some humans have XYY, XXY, or some other combination of sex chromosomes.
In humans a zygote will develop into a male it the?
egg contributes an X chromosome and the sperm contributes a Y chromosome.
Is sperm male or female?
Sperm is neither male nor female, it is a single cell - the egg determines whether the baby will be male or female.The sperm is the male sex cell, and it has two chromosomes ..... one "X" chromosome and one "Y" chromosome. Females have 2 "X" chromosomes. If the male sperm fertilizes the female egg with an "X" chromosome, the resulting baby will be a girl, but if the male sperm fertilizes the egg with a "Y" chromosome, the resulting baby will be a boy.The male of our species always determines the sex of the child.
