Most males have XY chromosomes while most females have XX chromosomes.
A mother needs to contribute an X chromosome to her child for them to be male. The father contributes a Y chromosome, resulting in an XY chromosome pair which determines a male child.
The child is a biological male.
Daughters inherit an X-chromosome from each parent but sons receive an X-chromosome only from the mother. The father supplies a Y-chromosome to make the child a boy.
yes, some people have xxy chromosomes, a genetic mutation. Although I'm not sure if the extra chromosome is from the fathers sperm or sex cell. Hope this helps :)
Male hemophiliacs inherit it from their mother, because hemophilia is only on the X gene and males only have one and it is from their mother.
There is no possibility that a male will inherit and X-linked recessive allele from his father because for a male child the father only contributes the Y chromosome to his son (of the XY pair he has). If the fater's X chromosome has a recessive allele then it is 100% certain that he will pas this on to all his daughters.
The sex of the child is determined by the combination of sex chromosomes inherited from the parents. Typically, a child will develop as male if they inherit one X and one Y chromosome (XY) and as female if they inherit two X chromosomes (XX).

The probability of a colorblind child being born is 50%. This is because the male passes his Y chromosome to all his sons, and since he is colorblind, his sons will inherit the colorblind gene from him. The daughters will inherit their X chromosome from the mother and have a 50% chance of being carriers like her.
The generally accepted theory is that males determine the sex because males can donate both an X chromosome or Y chromosome, while females can only donate an X chromosome to their offspring :D Hope this Helped
it is male
Male hemophiliacs inherit it from their mother, because hemophilia is only on the X gene and males only have one and it is from their mother.
Female transmit 23 chromosomes to the offspring. She has that unique chromosome called as X chromosome. This is transmitted to the offspring. From male you get either X or Y chromosome. From XX chromosome you get female child. From XY chromosome you get male child.
A male inherits his X chromosome from his mother and his Y chromosome from his father. Therefore, he cannot inherit an X-linked recessive gene directly from his dad, as fathers pass their Y chromosome to their sons. If a male has an X-linked recessive condition, it must come from his mother, who can pass on the affected X chromosome. In summary, males inherit X-linked traits only from their mothers.
