There are two chromosomes that determine the sex of the baby, X and Y. The women's ova are always chromosome X and the male sperm determines the sex of the baby, having the option of being either X or Y. If the sperm is and X then the sex will be female, and if it is a Y it will be a male. XX=girl, XY=boy.
the 23rd pair chromosomes is either xx which is female or xy which is male
one can look at the sex chromosomes...the 23rd pair should indicate sex. for example, two X's indicate a female and one X and one Y indicate a male.
You can if the person is male or female by looking at the sex chromosome. And checking if its a X or Y chromosome
sex chromosomes determine the sex of an unborn baby.
A male would have an X chromosome that literally looks like an X and Y chromosome that still resembles a X but is smaller like a lowercase x. A female would have two X chromosomes
The male karyotype has 46 chromosomes the same as the female karyotype:23 chromosomes are inherited from your father.
XX is Female XY is Male
It means they are female.
What differentiates a male from a female based off the chromosomes that are present is that a male organism will have X and Y chromosomes whereas a female organism will have X and X chromosomes.
No. A karyotype is an arrangement of the 22 pairs of homologous chromosomes and the 2 sex chromosomes according to their size and shape. The chromosomes are photographed during metaphase of mitosis and then arranged by a trained technologist. Karyotypes are determined in order to check for chromosomal abnormalities. Refer to the related links to see examples of a karyotype for a female and one for a male.
The male karyotype has 46 chromosomes the same as the female karyotype:23 chromosomes are inherited from your father.
The 23rd pair in a karyotype shows if it will be male or female
The X (female) and Y (male) chromosomes. A person with XX is female. A person with XY is male.
Feeder fish, How do you tell male from female of the?
You can tell if someone is male or female by their reproductive parts.
XX is Female XY is Male
It means they are female.
How do you tell a male pacific frog from a female
It is called a karyotype. If it shows two X chromosomes, the person is a female; if it shows one X and one Y chromosome, the person is a male.
Both male and female emus have blue on their necks. It is impossible to tell the male and female apart by appearance alone.
You can tell a male angel fish from a female one by all the colorful stripes it has. [the male one]
The question is not really clear. A karyotype is the overall complement of chromosomes isolated from a cell or organism (eukaryotic). When the karyotype of a normal healthy female is prepared for viewing by a cytogeneticist, there are 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes present (ie two of chromosome 1, two of chromosome 2 etc...). There is one additional pair of sex chromosomes (two copies of X). A normal healthy human male also has 22 pairs of autosomes but the pair of sex chromosomes is not matched but instead there is one X chromosome and one Y chromosome (which is smaller than the X). So, if you look at a karyotype that has been laid out - if the two sex chromosomes are different sizes (X and Y) then the karyotype is from a male, if however they are the same size (X and X) then the karyotype is from a female.
