No, XY combination of chromosomes produces a male baby. To produce a female baby, the combination of chromosomes must be XX. The mother's egg is always X, so the deciding vote goes to the father's sperm to choose an X or a Y chromosome - to see whether we'll be a boy, or a girl.
What else can I help you with?
Can an offspring look like just one parent?
because of the chromosomes the parents will give 23 of their chromosomes to the baby born and then that baby has 46 chromosomes in all.this method is called mitosis.
Which sex chromosome contains the most sex linked genes?
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. :)
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.
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. Because it combines with the mother's X chromosome.. creating XX(a female) If the father give a Y chromosome.. you a have a boy. It combines with the mothers X chromosomes.. creating XY(a male)
What does each parent give to there genes?
When an egg and a sperm "unite", they form a zygote, which has two gender chromosomes. However, eggs and sperm by themselves only have one. Eggs only ever have X chromosomes. Sperm can either have X or Y chromosomes. If an X sperm enters the egg, it will be XX or female. If a Y sperm enters the egg, it will be XY or male. This isn't really taking into account chromosomal disorders such as XXY etc where things don't go quite as expected, but that's the basics of things. It's pretty random which sperm will "win", there's no real way to determine that. I think studies have shown that in some families/men female sperm are dominant, or male sperm, so that families sometimes have a run of girls before having a boy, etc.
Does the sperm determine the gender of a baby?
No. The male determines the sex. A female has 2 X chromosomes, while a man has an X and a Y. A woman can only give an X, but a man can give an X or a Y, thus making the sperm cells the determining factor.
Does a male or a female dolphin give birth to the baby?
Only female dolphins give birth. Although male Bottle-Nosed Dolphins will have sex with other male Bottle-Nosed Dolphins.

How many chromosomes does the father give to a baby?
A mother and a father both give the child an even number from each, which would be 23 each.
Does the male or female gamete contribute more chromosomes to the fertilized egg?
Each gamete contributes an equal number of chromosomes to the fertilized egg. The male gamete (sperm) typically contains 23 chromosomes, and the female gamete (egg) also contains 23 chromosomes. Together, they combine to form the full set of 46 chromosomes in a normal human cell.
What age are hippos when they give birth to a baby?
A female can give birth when she is three for four years old.
Do the males give birth or do the females give birth?
