Yes, sex chromosomes are homologous in humans.
The only homologous chromosome pair in humans that is not identical is the sex chromosomes, specifically the X and Y chromosomes.
Humans have a total of 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes.
Males have 44 homologous chromosomes, or 22 pairs. Females are 46 and 23 respectively since they have homologous sex chromosomes.
A human gamete does not have any pairs of homologous chromosomes. A single human gamete contains 23 chromosomes, or a half set. None of these chromosomes are homologous with each other.
They have homologous chromosomes
The only homologous chromosome pair in humans that is not identical is the sex chromosomes, specifically the X and Y chromosomes.
The 23rd pair of chromosomes are the sex chromosomes. In female humans, both sex chromosomes are homologous, and characterized as XX. In male humans, one sex chromosome is an X chromosome and the other is a much smaller, nonhomologous Y chromosome, and is characterized as XY.
Humans have 22 pairs of homologous non-sex chromosomes (called autosomes), and one pair of sex chromosomes, making a total of 46 chromosomes in a genetically normal human.Each member of a pair is inherited from one of the two parents. In addition to the 22 pairs of homologous autosomes, female humans have a homologous pair of sex chromosomes (two Xs), while males have an X and a Y chromosome.

Males have 44 homologous chromosomes, or 22 pairs. Females are 46 and 23 respectively since they have homologous sex chromosomes.
No, 22 pairs of chromosomes are autosomes. The last, or 23rd, pair are sex chromosomes.
A human gamete does not have any pairs of homologous chromosomes. A single human gamete contains 23 chromosomes, or a half set. None of these chromosomes are homologous with each other.

A display of homologous pairs and sex chromosomes is typically represented in a karyotype, which is a systematic arrangement of an organism's chromosomes. In a karyotype, chromosomes are paired based on their size, shape, and banding patterns, with homologous pairs showing similar characteristics. The sex chromosomes, which determine the biological sex of an organism, are usually represented as X and Y chromosomes in humans, with females having two X chromosomes (XX) and males having one X and one Y chromosome (XY). This visual representation aids in identifying chromosomal abnormalities and understanding genetic traits.
