How many sex chromosomes does your mother give to a normal baby........and father?
The mother and father both give a normal baby 23 chromosomes. This is because, a normal human has 46 chromosomes in all cells, except sex cells. So, a human receives half from the mother and half from the father thus 23 from each.
Whose sex chromosomes determine a child's sex?
The sex chromosomes that determine a child's sex are inherited from the biological parents. The father contributes either an X or a Y chromosome, while the mother always contributes an X chromosome. The combination of these chromosomes determines the child's sex, with XX resulting in a female and XY resulting in a male.
Why is genotype of the father unimportant when investigating sex-linked traits inherited by male offspring?
Fathers pass the Y sex chromosome to their sons, NOT the X sex chromosome.
How the sex of a person determined?
Human cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes for a total of 46. There are 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. The sex chromosomes are the X chromosome and the Y chromosome. If you are male you have the XY chromosome.. making you a male. If you are female you have the XX chromosome.. making you a female. It all depends on the father, if the father gives an X chromosome... you have a girl.
