The element responsible for determining male sex in humans is the Y chromosome.
The female sex chromosome, known as the X chromosome, plays a crucial role in determining the biological sex of an individual. Females typically have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome. The presence or absence of the Y chromosome determines whether an individual develops as male or female.
Autosomes and sex chromosomes are both types of chromosomes found in the nucleus of cells. The main difference is that autosomes contain genes responsible for determining most traits, while sex chromosomes determine an individual's biological sex. Additionally, humans typically have two sets of autosomes (one from each parent) and one pair of sex chromosomes (XX for females and XY for males).
It doesn't. We all have X chromosomes.
That would be the chromosome number 23. Regarding the [sex] chromosome number 23, the female gametes always have a [haploid] X chromatid, whereas the male gametes are just as likely to possess a [haploid] X chromatid as they are to possess a [haploid] Y chromatid.
In humans, the Y chromosome is noticeably shorter than the X chromosome.
