What TYPE of a sperm must fertilize an egg to result a female child?
X Chromosome results in a female Y Chromosome results in a male All sperm are either going to be an X or Y chromosome All eggs are X chromosome only
Difference between male and female sperm?
Although only males produce sperm, that does not mean that all sperm is male. There are two types of sperm: male and female. Male sperm carry the 'y' chromosome; female sperm carry the 'x' chromosome. If all sperm where male, then there would be no females born. Thus, the difference between male and female sperm is that male sperm carries the 'y' chromosome and produces male offspring and female sperm carries the 'x' chromosome and produces female offspring.

Who makes the sex of a baby?
The sex of your baby is tottally dependant upon the male's sperm, each sperm has a specific sex chromosome, either a Y or an X . every egg of a female has only X sex chromosomes. When one sperm conjoins with one egg, the female gives her X chromosome and the male gives the chromosome (either X or Y) belonging to the sperm that made it to the egg first and will determine the sex. XX = Female XY = Male * All the things you hear about eating meat during your pregnancy will produce a boy and fruits will produce a girl are myth!
Cells produced by meiosis have only 1 of each chromosome. what name do you use to describe this type of cell?
gametes; they are haploid cells (i.e. they only have one set of chromosome); when gametes (egg) and (sperm) merge, then you have a zygote (i.e. they have two sets of chromosome- one from the egg and one from the sperm).
what cell contain only one sex chromosome?
In males, sperm contain only one sex chromosome. In females, eggs contain only one sex chromosome.
Why is a human cell containing 22 autosomes and a y chromosome a sperm?
Human somatic (body) cells contain two sets of 23 chromosomes. Human gametes (sperm and egg cells) contain one set of 23 chromomes -- 22 autosomes and 1 sex chromosome. Only a sperm cell can carry a y chromosome. A sperm cell can also carry an x chromosome. The ovum can carry only an x chromosome, never a y chromosome. So a cell containing 22 autosomes and a y chromosome must be a sperm cell.

In order to yield a chromosome condition only one sperm can fertilize one egg.?
yes only one sperm can fertilize one egg.
What cell contains only one sex cell?
In males, sperm contain only one sex chromosome. In females, eggs contain only one sex chromosome.
How is a baby sexs determine?
It's determined by the genetic chromosome of the sperm. Women have only one X chromosome in the egg (both egg and sperm have 23 pairs of chromosomes, which unite to form 46). On the other hand, men have either X or Y chromosomes. If an egg (X chromosome) joins with an X chromosome sperm, the result will be a girl. If an egg (X chromosome) joins with a Y chromosome sperm, the result will be a boy. In other words: the guy determines the sex of a baby :)

If and x sperm fertilizes will the offspring be male or female?
An offspring will only be male if it has a Y chromosome.
Which cell only contains one sex cell?
Gametes (sperm and eggs) contain only one sex chromosome.
