What else can I help you with?
What determines the sex of the offspring.?
For humans x or y chromosome from father
What sex chromosome does a girl obtain from her father?
Both parents will give a girl an X chromosome. The father will give a Y and the mother will give an X to a boy.
Which sex chromosome does a father pass on to a son?
A father passes on his Y chromosome to his son. In humans, males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY), while females have two X chromosomes (XX). Therefore, the son inherits the Y chromosome from his father and an X chromosome from his mother, resulting in a male (XY) offspring.
The sex of a child is determined by?
In humans the sex of the offspring is determined by which sperm is able to fertilize the ovum. If a sperm containing the X chromosome fertilizes the ovum, a female offspring results. If a sperm containing the Y chromosome fertilizes the ovum, a male offspring results
How many chromosomes dose each parent pass to their offspring?
When a parent is going to have an offspring the offspring only gets half a chromosome from each parent, they combine to make one chromosome then that chromosome gets copied until there are 23 pairs of chromosome's. This is how you get your features.
What determines the sex of the offspring.?
For humans x or y chromosome from father
Why is genotype of the father unimportant when investigating sex-linked traits inherited by male offspring?
Fathers pass the Y sex chromosome to their sons, NOT the X sex chromosome.
Whose chromosomes determine the sex of offspring in humans?
The males chromosomes determine the gender of the baby. Women have an XX chromosome and men have an XY chromosome. So women can only give an X chromosome, but men can give either/or.The chromosomes of the father make the final determination; the child either gets a X from the mother and either an X from the father which makes a girl, or an X from the mother and a Y from the father, which makes a boy.Jamiana:The Father's(it's Y though)
From where do you get your chromosome?
You receive half of your chromosomes from your mother and half from your father.
What sex chromosome does a girl obtain from her father?
Both parents will give a girl an X chromosome. The father will give a Y and the mother will give an X to a boy.
The sex of a child is determined by?
In humans the sex of the offspring is determined by which sperm is able to fertilize the ovum. If a sperm containing the X chromosome fertilizes the ovum, a female offspring results. If a sperm containing the Y chromosome fertilizes the ovum, a male offspring results
Who do Men pass their X chromosomes to?
Men pass their X chromosomes to their daughters. Men have both X and Y chromosomes. If they were to give their offspring an Y chromosome, it would have to be a male. If they gave their offsping an X chromosome it would have to be female. XX is female, XY is male.
Why is the genotype of the father unimportant when investigating sex linked traits inherited by the male offspring?
Fathers pass the Y sex chromosome to their sons, NOT the X sex chromosome.
How many chromosomes dose each parent pass to their offspring?
When a parent is going to have an offspring the offspring only gets half a chromosome from each parent, they combine to make one chromosome then that chromosome gets copied until there are 23 pairs of chromosome's. This is how you get your features.
What is the process by which offspring inherit one chromosome from each parent to form a pair of chromosomes?
The process by which offspring inherit one chromosome from each parent to form a pair of chromosomes is called genetic recombination. During this process, genetic material from the mother and father combines to create a unique set of chromosomes in the offspring.
What type of DNA only is transmitted by fathers to sons?
The DNA of the Y-chromosome is the DNA that is transmitted only from father to son. This is because women have two X-chromosomes, one of which is given to each child. But men have one X-chromosome and one Y-chromosome. So if a father gives a Y-chromosome to his child that child will be male, while only females receive the father's X-chromosome.
What percentage of the offspring's genetic information is the same as the genetic information of the parent?
An offspring receives half of its genetic information from its mother, and half from its father.
