d. it is female

Brief Explanations

In humans, biological sex is determined by sex chromosomes: females have two X chromosomes (XX), while males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY). The child inherits an X from the mother and Y from the father, giving an XY genotype. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus, which human cells do not, and haploid cells have one set of chromosomes, while human body cells are diploid.

Answer:

C. It is male.
