How many sex chromosomes do men have?
a human man has two pairs of 23 chromosomes, in total 46. there are cases where there is an extra chromosome in the 23rd spot of chromosomes in this case the man will have an extra chromosome, this is the cause of syndrome of down.
Compare and contrast Turners syndrome and Klinefelters syndrome?
With Turner's Syndrome, the females actually have 1 less chromosome, not an extra one or sometimes only part of the X chromosome is missing. Klinefelter's syndrome, 47, XXY, or XXY syndrome is a condition in which human males have an extra X chromosome. While females have an XX chromosomal makeup, and males an XY, affected individuals have at least two X chromosomes and at least one Y chromosome.
Are human males genes closer to other non human males then woman humans are?
Human male and female genes are more similar to each other than male-human and male-nonhuman genesWITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE Y CHROMOSOME.The Y chromosomes of male humans and the Y chromosome of male primates are more similar to each other than the Y chromosome of human males and the corresponding X chromosome of human females.I don't know how far this disparity extends but it MAY be true for the whole of the mammals.
How many chromosmes are found in the human somatic cell?
There are 23 pairs of chromosomes in each human somatic cell. 22 pairs are exactly the same in both males and females. In males there are XY sex chromosomes and in females these are XX.
How does a gene on one of the human sex chromosomes cause embryos to develop into males?
just nor
What is the medical term for hormone produced by the testis?
The medical term for hormone produced by the testis is testosterone. This is a hormone that is produced by males and is responsible for various functions in males.
What two endocrine glands mature during puberty allowing the human to reproduce?

What will your scrotum look like while going through puberty?
In males, the scrotum holds the testis. In puberty the testis grow in size and so the scrotum also grows bigger.
What disease does XXXY represent?
XXXY (referred to as 48XXXY) is a VERY RARE form of Klinefelter's syndrome, the more common type being XXY (47XXY). Males should have 46XY, but in this condition males develop with an extra (or in the case of this question, 2 extra) X chromosome. This is the most common sex chromosome disorder, affecting approximately 1/1000 males. The effects are usually small testis, reduced fertility and potential learning impairments.
Does puberty in males have anything to do with spermatogenesis?
Spermatogenesis starts at puberty in everyone . This is because the testis become mature.
What are some changes which happen during puberty?
For males, there is increase in size of testis. For females there is onset of menstruation.

What are the different physical changes during puberty or adolescence?
In males, the testis get bigger. In females, there is menstruation. Also the overall body growth is huge.
Is klinefelter's syndrome an inheritance?
It is a condition in which human males have an extra X chromosome. It is inherited when the extra X chromosome is retained because of a nondisjunction event during meiosis I (gametogenesis).
Contrast the sex chromosomes found in human females and human males?
Human females have two X chromosomes (XX) while human males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY). This difference in sex chromosomes determines biological sex and leads to different developmental pathways in males and females.
Why do men get hair throw puberty?
That is because the hormone responsible is testosterone. This hormone is produced by the testis and in males the hormone levels are really high in puberty.
