Generally, since the sex determining region is on the Y chromosome, this person is male. The SRY is a gene control area that determines male sex. Female is the default body plan in humans; males are made.

How many chromosome and chromosome pairs in humans?
There are 46 chromosomes per cell, with 22 pairs and an XX pair for females or an XY pair for males.
Which chromosome represent a female?
A human has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs). One chromosome from each pair comes from the mother, and one chromosome from each pair comes from the father. One of the 23 pairs determines your sex. The sex chromosomes are called X and Y.For a child to be female, she must inherit an X chromosome from each parent (XX).For a child to be male, he must inherit an X chromosome from his mother and a Y chromosome from his father (XY).
What are xx chromosomes called?
XX chromosomes are called sex chromosomes and are typically found in females.
What is the sex determiner?
Sex is determined by the 23rd pair of chromosomes (in humans). You get an X chromosome from your mother and an X or Y chromosome from your father. If you are XX, you are female. If you are XY, you are male.
Can an embryo develop with one x chromosome?
Yes, an embryo can develop with one X chromosome, rather than the XX or XY chromosome pair. An example of this is girls born with Turner's syndrome, who have only one X chromosome.

What type of sex chromosomes do females have?
Female have two X chromosomes while males have an X and a Y chromosome.
How is gender inheritance?
Gender is inherited from your parent's 23rd chromosome. The (XX) chromosome pair is for a female and the (XY) chromosome pair is for a male. You get a (X) chromosome from your mother because she has two (x)'s. Her 23rd chromosome is (XX). It's your father's chromosome that determines what gender you are. His 23rd chromosomes were (XY). If you get an (X) from him, you become a girl. If you get a (Y) chromosome from him, you become a boy. This all happens when your mother's egg is fertilized.

A typical human male has the following sex chromosome pair?
The sex chromosomes of a man are XY (vs. XX for a woman).
What is labeled the sex chromosome?
Sex chromosomes are called allosomes and in humans they are called the XY (male) or XX (female) pair.
Males have what chromosomes?
human male is having 27 chromosome x2 now. out of this one pair contains the sex determining genes. they are of two types Xand Y. male have XX and female have XY.
What is the difference between the male and female karyotypes?
Human females have a homologous pair of X chromosomes (XX), but males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY).
Why is the 23rd pair of chromosomes not always homologous?
The 23rd pair of chromosomes are the sex chromosomes. In female humans, both sex chromosomes are homologous, and characterized as XX. In male humans, one sex chromosome is an X chromosome and the other is a much smaller, nonhomologous Y chromosome, and is characterized as XY.
