the male has the x and y and the female has th x's
Y chromosome
Y i think
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.
The gene for this trait is likely located on the Y chromosome. The Y chromosome is passed down from father to son, and since only males have a Y chromosome, the trait will only be passed down through male lineage.

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.
Males have both X & Y chromosomes
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.
Males possess one X chromosome and one Y chromosome.
The X chromosome is affected, because there are 2 of them (and a Y chromosome).
Y chomozomes, I think. It says on Wikipedia.
The gene for this trait is likely located on the Y chromosome. The Y chromosome is passed down from father to son, and since only males have a Y chromosome, the trait will only be passed down through male lineage.
y chromosome is the chromosome that makes males, alcoholism has nothing to do with it unless you make the choice to drink
sex-linked disorders
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.
