What is the male genotype in the ZW chromosome system?
ZZ
Which male genotype in the ZW sex chromosome system?
In the ZW sex chromosome system, the male genotype is ZZ. The letter Z represents the presence of a dominant male-determining gene, while the letter W represents the absence of this gene, which determines female development. Therefore, individuals with the ZZ genotype develop as males in this system.
What is the male genotype in ZW sex chromosomes system?
ZZ
What is a z chromosome?
The Z chromosome is a sex chromosome found in birds, reptiles, and insects. In species with ZW sex determination, females have two Z chromosomes (ZZ) and males have one Z chromosome (ZW). The Z chromosome plays a role in determining the sex of an individual.

Which pair of chromosomes produces a male off-springs?
It depends which species you are. There is the XY system (which mammals use) where it is the presence of the Y chromosome that induces male development. The Y chromosome contains genes like Sry that initiate the male developmental program. Male mammals have an X and a Y chromosome, female mammals have two X chromosomes. However, for other species, like birds, use the so-called ZW sex chromosome system where it is actually the absence of the W chromosome that permits male development - male birds have two Z chromosomes and female birds have a W and a Z chromosome. And then there's the X0 system, which many insects use, where two copies of an X chromosome results in a female but a single copy of an X chromosome results in a male.
What is the genotype of a male and female?
These genotypes are determined by a human's 23rd pair of chromosomes. If the subject is female, she has two X's reading XX. If it is male, then his genotype will read XY. There is a 50-50 shot of each. This is because a woman donates one chromosome (she only has two X's so it is inevitable that she will donate an X), and a man donates one of his. If a man donates his 'X' then there will be two X's and the child will be female. If he donates his 'Y' then the child will be male.Male is XY, female is XX. There are, however, other genotypes (XXY, XXX, XO...) and not all people have a phenotype that goes with their genotype.
When was .zw created?
.zw was created in 1991.
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.
ZW ll YX what does this mean?
ZW is parallel to YX.
What do males have in their DNA that starts with a Y?
That's not a DNA, it's a collection of genes that makes up the Y-chromosome. It's not even exclusively a male thing. Different species have different types of chromosomes to determine the sexes. For instance, the male komodo dragon has chromosomes ZZ, while the female has ZW, therefore the female is the sex determining sex.
