46
A fully operational human sperm contains 23 chromosomes.
Chromosome 21 is the smallest human chromosome. Inside of the chromosome, there are 48 billion nucleotides, the building blocks of DNA.
In humans, which sex chromosome determines if an offspring is a male or female?
Humans have 46 individual chromosomes. Which translate into 23 pairs.Â
The Y chromosome contains more than 59 million blocks of DNA and represents almost 2% of the total DNA in cells within the body. The Y chromosome contains between 20,000 to 25,000 genes within the human genetic make-up.

In humans the male sperm contains EITHER an X chromosome, or a Y chromosome since human gametes are haploid (n) in chromosome number.

No. The human X chromosome contains over 1000 genes, many of which are essential for life. The Y chromosome in comparison has only about 120 genes. A zygote with Y0 or YY (one or two Y chromosomes) would not be viable.
Chromosomes 21 and 22 are the smallest human autosomes. Chromosome 22 contains approximately 43 million DNA base pairs. Chromosome 21 contains roughly 32 million base pairs. These were the first two hu8man Chromosomes whose sequences were determined.
The answer will vary from person to person. It will depend on the individual as well as his age.
That depends completely upon the Species of the Body. The human body's Cells possess 46 individual chromosomes except that they are not actually individual because they actually exist in a paired configuration that yeilds 23 Chromosome Pairs.
Genes located on the X or Y chromosome are referred to as sex-linked genes. This is because the inheritance of these genes is dependent upon the sex of the individual. For example, only males can inherit genes located on the Y chromosome (because males have XY and females have XX).
