In humans, gender is determined by the x and y chromosomes, with xx being a genetic female and xy being a genetic male

∙ 7y agoThe sex of an embryo is determined by the presence or absence of a Y chromosome. If the embryo has a Y chromosome, it will develop as male. If no Y chromosome is present, the embryo will develop as female.
The embryo receives half of its chromosomes from the female's egg and half from the male's sperm. This genetic material combines to form the unique set of DNA that determines the embryo's traits and characteristics.
An embryo is produced through the process of fertilization, where a sperm cell from a male fertilizes an egg cell from a female. This results in the formation of a zygote, which then undergoes cell division and development to become an embryo.
A female carrying an embryo is typically referred to as pregnant.
Male embryos have XY chromosomes, while female embryos have XX chromosomes. This genetic difference determines the development of male or female reproductive organs. Hormonal differences also play a role in shaping the physical characteristics of male and female embryos.
The embryo sac is female, as it is the structure within the ovule of a flowering plant that contains the female reproductive cells (eggs).

That all depends on how long she lives to, and whether she is a donor cow in terms of embryo transfer.

The embryo of a human develops in the uterus of the female body. The uterus provides a protective and nourishing environment for the embryo to grow and develop into a fetus.
In the early stages of development, an embryo's sex is not yet determined. The sex of the embryo is determined by the presence or absence of a Y chromosome from the father. Once the sex chromosomes are determined, the embryo will develop into a male or female.
The term for a female carrying an embryo is "pregnant."
No, the ovaries produce eggs that are neither male nor female. It is the father's sperm that determines whether the egg will be male or female.
Females have two X chromosomes. Males have one X and one Y.
An embryo, male or female, usually has two sex chromosomes, one from mom, one from dad. In a male's case, they would be XY. Rarely, nondisjunction occurs, and a child winds up XXX, XXY, XYY, or X. XXX and X become female, and XXY and XYY become male. So, it is theoretically possible for a male embryo to have three sex chromosomes.
