What sex chromosome is found in human egg cell?

By human egg cell I guess you mean the oocyte (the one produced by the mother). The oocyte always carries the X chromosome, the sperm can either carry the Y or the X chromosome. Interestingly, the sperm which carries the Y is actually quicker than the one carrying the X, maybe because the X chromosome is far larger. So, if the Y chromosome sperm reaches the egg first, the child will be a boy (XY), and if the X chromosome sperm beats him to it, the child will be a girl (XX).


What percentage of human sperm Cells carry an X chromosome?

50 % of human sperm Cells are an X chromosome, the other half are a Y chromosome: {diploid = 2n = 1 chromosome pair; haploid = n = 1 chromosome - including the meiotic single chromosome = n}. All sperm and egg Cells carry one set each of n (23 single) chromosomes. When a sperm and an egg combine either: a) a sperm Cell with the X chromosome merges with the [X-chromosome] egg Cell and the baby will be a girl; or b) a sperm Cell with the Y chromosome merges with the egg Cell and the baby will be a boy.

How many chromosomes are in a human egg cell?

A human egg cell has 23 chromosomes, which is half the number of chromosomes found in a regular human cell. During fertilization, when the egg merges with a sperm cell, the full complement of 46 chromosomes is restored.
