What else can I help you with?
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 is the difference between male and female sperm in terms of their characteristics and functions?
Male sperm, or sperm cells produced by males, carry either an X or Y chromosome, determining the sex of the offspring. Female sperm, or sperm cells produced by females, only carry an X chromosome. Both types of sperm have the same function of fertilizing an egg, but male sperm are faster swimmers and have a shorter lifespan compared to female sperm.
What are the differences between x sperm and y sperm in terms of their characteristics and functions during the fertilization process?
X sperm and Y sperm are different in terms of their genetic content, with X sperm carrying an X chromosome and Y sperm carrying a Y chromosome. During fertilization, X sperm typically result in female offspring, while Y sperm typically result in male offspring. The characteristics and functions of X and Y sperm are primarily determined by the chromosomes they carry, influencing the gender of the resulting offspring.
Do an egg only have y chromosomes?
No, eggs typically contain one X chromosome. Female reproductive cells (eggs) carry one X chromosome, while male reproductive cells (sperm) can contribute either an X or a Y chromosome. Thus, it is the combination of genetic material from the egg and sperm that determines the genetic sex of offspring.
How can you tell the difference between men sperm and women sperm?
Sperm cells from male individuals carry either an X or Y chromosome, while those from female individuals can only carry an X chromosome. Sperm cells are typically identified under a microscope based on their size, shape, and movement characteristics, rather than their genetic content.
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.
If and x sperm fertilizes will the offspring be male or female?
An offspring will only be male if it has a Y chromosome.
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 is the chromosome carried only by the sperm called?
The chromosome carried only by the sperm is called the Y chromosome, which determines the male gender when combined with the X chromosome from the egg during fertilization.
What is the difference between male and female sperm in terms of their characteristics and functions?
Male sperm, or sperm cells produced by males, carry either an X or Y chromosome, determining the sex of the offspring. Female sperm, or sperm cells produced by females, only carry an X chromosome. Both types of sperm have the same function of fertilizing an egg, but male sperm are faster swimmers and have a shorter lifespan compared to female sperm.
What are the differences between x sperm and y sperm in terms of their characteristics and functions during the fertilization process?

During fertilization, X sperm typically result in female offspring, while Y sperm typically result in male offspring. The characteristics and functions of X and Y sperm are primarily determined by the chromosomes they carry, influencing the gender of the resulting offspring.
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
