What determines the sex of the offspring.?
For humans x or y chromosome from father
How many chromosomes dose each parent pass to their offspring?
When a parent is going to have an offspring the offspring only gets half a chromosome from each parent, they combine to make one chromosome then that chromosome gets copied until there are 23 pairs of chromosome's. This is how you get your features.
What percentage of the offspring's genetic information is the same as the genetic information of the parent?
An offspring receives half of its genetic information from its mother, and half from its father.
What percentage of the DNA is passed through to the offspring in asexual reproduction?
An offspring receives half of its genetic information from its mother, and half from its father.
Why are there two of each chromosome in a normal karyotype?
because in meiosis, you receive 23 from your mother and 23 from your father, making there a total of 46

From where do you get your chromosome?
You receive half of your chromosomes from your mother and half from your father.
Whose chromosomes determine the sex of offspring in humans?
In humans, it is the father's chromosomes that determine the sex of offspring. The father contributes either an X or a Y chromosome, while the mother always contributes an X chromosome. If the combination is XX, the offspring is female, and if it's XY, the offspring is male.
Why is genotype of the father unimportant when investigating sex-linked traits inherited by male offspring?
Fathers pass the Y sex chromosome to their sons, NOT the X sex chromosome.

What type of DNA only is transmitted by fathers to sons?
The DNA of the Y-chromosome is the DNA that is transmitted only from father to son. This is because women have two X-chromosomes, one of which is given to each child. But men have one X-chromosome and one Y-chromosome. So if a father gives a Y-chromosome to his child that child will be male, while only females receive the father's X-chromosome.
What percentage of the offspring's genetic information is the same as the genetic information of the parent?
An offspring receives half of its genetic information from its mother, and half from its father.
Why does the dad determine the gender of the baby?
Women have only X chromosomes. Men have one X and one Y. If the man's sperm has an X chromosomes, the child will be a girl. If the man's sperm has a Y chromosome, the child will be a boy.
Why is the y chromosome useful for tracing ancestry?
The y-chromosome is only present in males. Men will a y-chromosome identical to that of their father, and his father, and his father, etc.
