Chromosomes are the same no matter what gender you are, or what species, all cells have them. It is the information contained within those chromosomes that is different between cells.
In humans, which sex chromosome determines if an offspring is a male or female?
In humans, which sex chromosome determines if an offspring is a male or female?
It is on the X Chromosome (male have XY chromosome Females have XX Chromosome)
What differentiates a male from a female based off the chromosomes that are present is that a male organism will have X and Y chromosomes whereas a female organism will have X and X chromosomes.
If it has a x and y chromosome it is from a male if it has two x chromosome or is from a female
XY = Male XX = Female
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.
In humans, the twenty-third chromosome is different than the others. The last pair indicates whether male or female; this is why they are different
X chromosome
Human females have a homologous pair of X chromosomes (XX), but males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY).
An x chromosome is specifically a feminine chromosome. With a x and y chromosome its male, with a x and x, it is a female.
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.
