When a man and a woman have a baby, in the man's sperm there is one set of genes and in the woman's egg there is only one set of genes wheras with every other cell in your body there are two sets of genes. Your last set of genes determines if you are a boy or a girl, if you are XX, you are a girl, if you are XY, you are a boy.

Hope this helps.

Is DNA only matched from the father?

No, DNA is inherited from both parents, with half coming from the father and half from the mother. Each parent contributes one allele for each gene, leading to a unique combination of genetic material in the offspring. This combined genetic information is what makes up an individual's complete DNA profile.
