Most sex-linked genes are found on which chromosome x y?
Many sex-linked genes are found on the X chromosome. More than 100 sex-linked genetic disorders have now been mapped to the X chromosome. The human Y chromosome is much smaller than the X chromosome and appears to contain only few genes.
If a characteristic is sex-linked then where is the gene for it found?
Genes for sex-linked traits can be found on the sex chromosomes - X and Y. Almost all sex-linked traits are determined by the X chromosome, because it is much larger than the Y chromosome and can thus carry more genes. A few sex-linked traits are known on the Y chromosome, including - believe it or not - hairy ears.
How many single chromosomes do humans have in their sex cell?
Humans have 23 chromosomes in their sex cells.
What are the name of 23 chromosomes in human body?
No, there are 46 chromosomes in one cell. A gamete, or sex cell, has 23 chromosomes because during fertilization, the female and male gametes (egg and sperm, respectively) come together to form a new cell with 46 chromosomes
Why are most sex-linked traits found in the X chromosome?
Most sex-linked traits are found on the X chromosome because males have only one X chromosome, so any gene on the X chromosome will be expressed in males. In females, who have two X chromosomes, one X chromosome can compensate for any harmful gene on the other X chromosome.
What chromosome are found in body cell but not sex cell?

How many chromoses are in a human sex cell?

Is chromosome 19 autosomal or sex chromosome?
Chromosome#19 is autosomal cell when refering to the human system. The #23 chromsomes is the sex cell in the human body system.
What is the sex cell of a rooster?

The sex chromosome typically carried by an ovum is X-chromosome. The sperm may carry either x or y sex chromosome.
