the male has the x and y and the female has th x's
For males. We have a Y-chromosome and that is makes men males. Women, on the other hand, have all X chromosomes and pass on their mitochondrial information.
Yes, Men and boys have on X and one Y chromosome in each cell. For women it is two X chromosomes.
a male has to have the pair XY. female has XX
no they have an X and a Y chromosome plus 44 non gender related chromosomes. making a total of 23 pairs
male: XY
female: XX
Yes
boy
Y chromosome
Y i think
Since males are the only sex to have a y chromosome, only males can get genes that are linked to the Y chromosome. This means that some genetic diseases and conditions are more likely to be male such as color blindness.
When a person is born they get one chromosome from the mom and one from the dad. A female has XX chromosomes a male has XY Cromosomes. So a male would get the Y from the dad and the X from the mom.

Y chromosome
Y i think
The y-chromosome is only present in males. Men will a y-chromosome identical to that of their father, and his father, and his father, etc.

The X chromosome is affected, because there are 2 of them (and a Y chromosome).
sex-linked disorders
y chromosome is the chromosome that makes males, alcoholism has nothing to do with it unless you make the choice to drink
The generally accepted theory is that males determine the sex because males can donate both an X chromosome or Y chromosome, while females can only donate an X chromosome to their offspring :D Hope this Helped
Y chomozomes, I think. It says on Wikipedia.
No, Fragile X is on the X chromosome. Females have 2 X chromosomes and Males have an X and a Y Chromosome. Therefore, both males and females can have Fragile X (they can have the full mutation or be carriers). Males are usually more severly affected because they have only one X Chromosome.
The Y chromosome is the male sex chromosome, but males also carry a X chromosome from their mother. XY. The female sex chromosome is the Y chromosome; YY is female. ( generally, as sex chromosome number in both sexes can vary )
