How do you kill y sperm without killing the X sperm?
A centrifuge can separate the heavier X-bearing sperm from the lighter Y-bearing sperm.
Can a man have only x or y chromosomes in his sperm?
Yes, all male have sperm cell contain both a X and Y chromosome and female have only two Y chromosomeI just want to clarify that Sperm Cell contain X "OR" Y chromosome, not X "and" Y.
Which sex chromosome do sperm cells carry?
Sperm cells are of two types. One type carries a Y chromosome, while the other type carries an X chromosome. This is the reason why the Spermatid is the 'deciding factor' in whether a baby will be male or female. The Ovum always carries an X chromosome.
How is a baby sexs determine?
It's determined by the genetic chromosome of the sperm. Women have only one X chromosome in the egg (both egg and sperm have 23 pairs of chromosomes, which unite to form 46). On the other hand, men have either X or Y chromosomes. If an egg (X chromosome) joins with an X chromosome sperm, the result will be a girl. If an egg (X chromosome) joins with a Y chromosome sperm, the result will be a boy. In other words: the guy determines the sex of a baby :)
Why is a human cell containing 22 autosomes and a y chromosome a sperm?
Human somatic (body) cells contain two sets of 23 chromosomes. Human gametes (sperm and egg cells) contain one set of 23 chromomes -- 22 autosomes and 1 sex chromosome. Only a sperm cell can carry a y chromosome. A sperm cell can also carry an x chromosome. The ovum can carry only an x chromosome, never a y chromosome. So a cell containing 22 autosomes and a y chromosome must be a sperm cell.
What men should eat to increase Y sperm?
Increase Y chromosome sperm? Can't happen, ONE X and ONE Y chromosome in each
Does human sperm carry two x chromosomes?
no they only contain a fraction of x chromasomes
Lifespan of x and y sperm?
There is no such thing as X Y sperm, but there are X/Y Chromosomes. Sperm, once inside the fallopian tube(s) they have a life span of about 5 days. In the vagina, they die in only a few hours. In the open air, they die rapidly.
How do you kill y sperm without killing the X sperm?
A centrifuge can separate the heavier X-bearing sperm from the lighter Y-bearing sperm.
If and x sperm fertilizes will the offspring be male or female?
An offspring will only be male if it has a Y chromosome.
Which cell determends the gender of a human baby?
The sperm cell determines the gender of a human baby. Ova only have X sex chromosomes, but sperm cells can have either an X or a Y sex chromosome. If an X sperm fertilizes an egg, the offspring will be XX and be female. If a Y sperm fertilizes an egg, the offspring will be XY and be male.
How many different combinations of sperms are possible in a human male?
There are only two possible combinations of sperm that a male can produce. A single sperm will either be X bearing or Y bearing. If an X sperm splits one egg, the result will be female. If a Y sperm splits the egg, the result will be male.
What TYPE of a sperm must fertilize an egg to result a female child?
X Chromosome results in a female Y Chromosome results in a male All sperm are either going to be an X or Y chromosome All eggs are X chromosome only
How do you become a boy or girl?
Sex is determined by a pair of sex chromosomes. Males have XY chromosomes and females have XX chromosomes. In the fertilization stage where the sperm combines with the egg, the sex of the offspring depends on whether the sperm carries a X or Y chromosome. The ovum always carries a X chromosome because females only have X chromosomes. So, if the sperm carries the X chromosome, the offspring will have XX chromosome and becomes a girl. If it carries the Y, the baby becomes a boy. X (sperm) + X (egg) = XX (female) Y (sperm) + X (egg) = XY (male)
How do you kill a y sperm without killing the X sperm?
Sperm have both x and y chromosmes and it would be immpossible to try and kill the y without killing the x
Can a man have only x or y chromosomes in his sperm?
Yes, all male have sperm cell contain both a X and Y chromosome and female have only two Y chromosomeI just want to clarify that Sperm Cell contain X "OR" Y chromosome, not X "and" Y.
What makes sperm move?
The tail of the sperm whips and forces the sperm forward. Y sperm are smaller, lighter and faster, X sperm are larger, heavier and slower but can keep going for longer. Y sperm are sprinters, X sperm are long distance runners.
