What else can I help you with?
Do males and females have different chromosomes?
Yes, males typically have XY chromosomes and females typically have XX chromosomes.
How many homologous chromosomes do males have?
Males have 44 homologous chromosomes, or 22 pairs. Females are 46 and 23 respectively since they have homologous sex chromosomes.
The 23rd pair of chromosomes that differ in males and females are?
During the process of meiosis that sex cells undergo, the chromosome set is halved from 46 to 23 chromosomes. This way, the combined chromosome sets of two sex cells after fertilization result in a full set again.
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 are the X and Y chromosomes called?
The X and Y chromosomes are called the "Sex Chromosomes". Both the X and Y chromosome are part of the "sex-determining system" that helps determine the sex characteristics in humans. In the system, females have two X chromosomes (XX) while males have an X and a Y chromosome (XY).
Do males and females have different chromosomes?
Yes, males typically have XY chromosomes and females typically have XX chromosomes.
How many chromosomes do females and males have?
46
The 22 pairs of chromosomes in human somatic cells that are the same in males and females are called?
Autosomes.
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 homologous chromosomes do males have?
Males have 44 homologous chromosomes, or 22 pairs. Females are 46 and 23 respectively since they have homologous sex chromosomes.
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?
XY Chromosomes = Males XX Chromosomes = Females
The 23rd pair of chromosomes that differ in males and females are?
During the process of meiosis that sex cells undergo, the chromosome set is halved from 46 to 23 chromosomes. This way, the combined chromosome sets of two sex cells after fertilization result in a full set again.
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
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.
Is the x chromozone a female one or male one?
The X chromosome belongs to both males and females. However, females have two of the same kind of sex chromosome(XX), and are called the homogametic sex. Males have two distinct sex chromosomes (XY), and are called the hetrogametic sex.
What type of sex chromosomes do females have?
Female have two X chromosomes while males have an X and a Y chromosome.
