The person would normally be female; however, males with Klinefelter's syndrome have at least two X chromosomes and at least one Y chromosome.
What else can I help you with?
What type of sex is an organism with 2 X chromosomes?
An organism with 2 X sex chromosomes is female.
What are the X and Y chromosomes called?
The X and Y chromosomes are called the "Sex Chromosomes". Both the X and Y chromosome are part of the "sex-determining system" that helps determine the sex characteristics in humans. In the system, females have two X chromosomes (XX) while males have an X and a Y chromosome (XY).
How are the human sex chromosomes labeled and identified in genetic testing?
In genetic testing, human sex chromosomes are labeled as X and Y. They are identified by analyzing the presence or absence of these chromosomes in a person's genetic makeup. The combination of X and Y chromosomes determines an individual's biological sex.
How is a person's genetic sex determined?
A person's genetic sex is determined by the combination of sex chromosomes they inherit from their biological parents. Typically, individuals with two X chromosomes are female, while those with one X and one Y chromosome are male.
How many pair of sex chromosomes does a human cell have?
Humans have one pair of sex chromosomes. They are called X and Y. The two determine what sex a person will be. Males have X + Y and females have X + X. There are some genes that are called sex linked genes found on these. The Y chromosome is very small and contains mainly the genes that make a person a male. There are few other genes on the Y.
How do chromosomes determine sex?
In Human Beings two chromosomes normally determine a persons sex. If a person has two X chromosomes, (XX), that person will be a female. If a person has an X and a Y chromosome, that person will be a male. Most people get 23 chromosomes from their mother and 23 from their father. Thus, most people have 46 chromosomes. They get either an X or a Y chromosome from their father. Sometimes things get complicated. That is for another answer.
Name one pair of chromosomes not homologous in a normal karyotype?
Sex chromosomes X and Y are not homologous in a normal karyotype. This pair of chromosomes determines an individual's biological sex, with females having two X chromosomes and males having one X and one Y chromosome.
What chromosomes determine a person gender?
Xy chromosomes= boy xx chromosomes= female
What carry genes that determine whether a person is female or male?
Chromosome 23 determines whether a person is male or female. These are called the 'sex chromosomes' and they come in two varieties, X and Y. Females have 2 X's and males have 1 X and 1 Y.
What is the sex of the person with two X chromosomes?
The person would normally be female; however, males with Klinefelter's syndrome have at least two X chromosomes and at least one Y chromosome.
What do you call the genes that are located on the sex chromosomes?
genes located on sex chromosomes are called sex-linked genes. In humans, there are two types of sex chromosomes: X and Y chromosomes.Genes located on the X chromosome are called X-linked and genes located on the Y chromosome are called Y-linked chromosomes.
Sex-linked genes are usually found in which chromosome?
Sex linked genes are located on the sex chromosomes.
