Chromosomes are present in all humans and most living organisms, with each individual typically having 23 pairs, totaling 46 chromosomes. These structures carry genetic information and are crucial for inheritance, cellular function, and development. Variations in chromosome number or structure can lead to genetic disorders or specific traits, but every human has chromosomes regardless of individual differences.

What is the y chromosome?

What is the chromosome carried only by the sperm called?
The chromosome carried only by the sperm is called the Y chromosome, which determines the male gender when combined with the X chromosome from the egg during fertilization.

Y chromosome

what cell contain only one sex chromosome?
In males, sperm contain only one sex chromosome. In females, eggs contain only one sex chromosome.
How can genetic counselors predict genetic disorders?
Well certain disorders are found on certain chromosomes and on certain parts of the chromosome. How they find out how, i don't know. But if some pieces of a specific chromosome they can predict they will have a certain disorder
What is the chromosome carried only by the sperm called?
The chromosome carried only by the sperm is called the Y chromosome, which determines the male gender when combined with the X chromosome from the egg during fertilization.
What is different between a chromosome and a chromatid?
Chromosome need 2 chromatids but a chromatid is only half of a chromosome
Does an x chromosome looks the same as a y chromosome?
No. An 'X' chromosome looks like an 'X'. The 'Y' chromosome looks like a deformed 'X'. It is noticeably different to an 'X' chromosome. Also, the 'Y' chromosome is only a third of the size of an 'X' chromosome - an 'X' chromosome is 155 million base pares, while the 'Y' chromosome is only 58 million base pairs.

Which genetic disease is it when someone only has a y chromosome but no x chromosome?
That isn't physically possible. All XO individuals are females with Turner's syndrome. Individuals with only a Y chromosome do not survive.
Why were only certain people mummified?
Because the certain number of people that were mummified were royal or had a lot of money.
Why are traits controlled by recessive alleles on the X chromosomes are more common in males then in females?
In males, they only have one X chromosome, so if they inherit a recessive allele for a certain trait on their X chromosome, it will be expressed because there is no corresponding dominant allele on the Y chromosome to mask it. Females have two X chromosomes, so even if they inherit a recessive allele on one X chromosome, the dominant allele on the other X chromosome can mask its expression.
What is the y-chromosome?
The Y chromosome is the one that carries male genetics. It pairs with the X chromosome that carries female genetics. All males have an XY pair whereas females have an XX pair of chromosomes.The y chromosome is one variation of the two possible sex chromosomes in humans and other mammals. All people have at least one y chromosome. The difference is that women have two homologous y chromosomes and men have one y chromosome and one smaller x chromosome matched with it. It is commonly thought to code for certain sexual characteristics and developmental traits.
