Females' eggs always provide an X. If the sperm is X, the child is female (XX); if it is Y, the child is male (XY).
A female human has two X sex chromosomes in her cells. A male human has one X and one Y sex chromosome in his cells.
The human male has both an X and Y chromosome which determines the sex of an offspring. Female only have the X chromosome.
The female egg caries two X's(XX) and the male caries XY
Sex chromosomes are either x or y. The female can only give off xx's, the male however can give x or y. Therefore the male determines the sex of the baby. Its on the 32 chromosome. :)
Gender is determined by the male sex cells. We have 46 chromosomes, and haploid sex cells contain 23. The female sex chromosomes are both X, while male has two different forms of the chromosome (X and Y). So about half of the male sex cells have an X chromosome, and about half have the Y chromosome. When egg is fertilized, the 23 chromosomes of the female egg (an X) and the 23 chromosomes of the sperm (X or Y) fuse together to total 46. The sperm determines the gender because if it has X it will be a girl (XX) and if it has Y it will be a boy (XY). There are various means suggested to increase the ratio of X or Y sperm that are contained in the semen, in order to increase the chances for either a girl or boy baby.
X and Y
the female has 2 cells: 2 "x" cells and the male has a "y" and an "x" cell. during sexual intercourse, the woman will give off an x cell and the male will give off an x or a y. if there is 2 x cells, it will be a girl. if it is an x-y combination it will be a boy.
A female human has two X sex chromosomes in her cells. A male human has one X and one Y sex chromosome in his cells.
A normal male will have one X and one Y chromosome.
The sex chromosomes, X and Y. Having two X's makes you female, and an X and Y makes you a male.
We call these sex chromosomes. Whether you are a male or female depends on the presence or absence of certain chromosomes. The sex chromosomes are the X chromosome and the Y chromosome. If you have two XX, you will show female characteristics and If you have XY you will show male characteristics.
The human male has both an X and Y chromosome which determines the sex of an offspring. Female only have the X chromosome.
The male sex chromosome is XY, and females are XX. The X comes from the female, and an X or a Y from the male. When they meet, that determines whether the baby will be a boy or a girl.
The male has an x and a y sex chromosome. The female has two x sex chromosomes.
The female egg caries two X's(XX) and the male caries XY
x and y chromosomes
The ones that determine our sex are, X Y, girls are X X
