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.

How many chromosomes are common to both males and females?

Both males and females have 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. In females, the sex chromosomes are two X chromosomes (XX), while in males, the sex chromosomes are one X and one Y chromosome (XY). Therefore, one pair of the sex chromosomes is common to both males and females.


What are sex chromosomes that result in male?

Chromosomes found in somatic cells and are perfectly matched in males and females?

Autosomes are the chromosomes found in somatic cells that are perfectly matched in males and females. These chromosomes are responsible for determining non-sex traits in an individual. Both males and females have two copies of each autosome, one from each parent, making them perfectly matched.


What is the 23rd pair of chromosomes that differ in males and females called?

The body cells of human males have what two chromosomes?

The body cells of most humans have 46 chromosomes, which can be arranged into 23 pairs. One chromosome in each pair comes from the mother and the other chromosome comes from the father. Of the 23 pairs, 22 pairs (the body chromosomes, or autosomes) are the same in males and females. The 23 rd pair, called the sex chromosomes, is different in males and females. In females, the sex chromosomes are the same and are called X chrosomes. In males, the sex chromosomes are different. One is an X chromosome (inherited from your mother or your father) and the other is a smaller chromosome called the Y chromosome (inherited from your father). So, the two chromosomes which are found in human males (but not human females) are the sex chromosomes, X and Y. See: http://biology.about.com/library/weekly/aa091103a.htm

What pair of chromosomes can contain two very different chromosomes and still be considered normal?

Pair of sex chromosomes (e.g. XX or XY) can contain two very different chromosomes (X and Y) and still be considered normal in humans. Having one X and one Y chromosome is a normal genetic combination for males.
