A normal male fruit fly has two sets of chromosomes: one set of X and one set of Y chromosomes. This combination determines the male sex of the fruit fly.
Normal male humans have the sex chromosomes XY. The presence of the Y chromosome determines sex in humans - so a person with XXY will be male.
The male karyotype has 46 chromosomes the same as the female karyotype:23 chromosomes are inherited from your father.
there is 4 pairs of chromosomes in each cell for a fly!
The child would inherit one set of chromosomes from each parent. Since the male is homozygous for the normal gene order, he will pass on a normal chromosome set. The female, being homozygous for the inversion mutation, will pass on chromosomes that carry the inversion. As a result, the child will have one set of normal chromosomes and one set with the inversion mutation, leading to a genotype that is heterozygous for the inversion.
A male grasshopper typically has 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.
The pair of sex chromosomes (X and Y) is not homologous in a normal male karyotype. Males have one X and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes.
Normal male humans have the sex chromosomes XY. The presence of the Y chromosome determines sex in humans - so a person with XXY will be male.
The male karyotype has 46 chromosomes the same as the female karyotype:23 chromosomes are inherited from your father.
A normal male will have one X and one Y chromosome.

Normal females have XX chromosomes and normal males have XY chromosomes. I believe there are two of each in a human body and the rest are autosomes.
22 pair of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. A male determines the sex with XY chromosomes and the female only has YY. 23; half of the normal 46 for a cell. This is so when the male and female cells meet, they will form a normal 46-chromosome cell.
Maleness is not a genotype but a combination of sex chromosomes. A normal human male has an X as well as a Y chromosome.
In humans and other mammals, a male has XY sex chromosomes. In birds, a male has XX chromosomes. In amphibians, male chromosomes look the same as female chromosomes.
Sex chromosomes X and Y are not homologous in a normal karyotype. This pair of chromosomes determines an individual's biological sex, with females having two X chromosomes and males having one X and one Y chromosome.
The child would inherit one set of chromosomes from each parent. Since the male is homozygous for the normal gene order, he will pass on a normal chromosome set. The female, being homozygous for the inversion mutation, will pass on chromosomes that carry the inversion. As a result, the child will have one set of normal chromosomes and one set with the inversion mutation, leading to a genotype that is heterozygous for the inversion.
In a gamete (sex) cell, there are 23 chromosomes. A gamete is a haploid, or n, whereas a somatic (normal) cell is a diploid, or 2n, and has 46 chromosomes.
