Best Answer

If you are female, you receive half of your father's genetic material. If you are male, you receive almost half; the Y chromosome is missing some genes, so it is the mother's X chromosome and the genes on the top of it that solely determine certain characteristics in the son. These are called sex-linked characteristics.
