Question
a child receives an x chromosome from its mother and a y chromosome from its father. what is true about this child?
a. it is prokaryotic.
b. it is haploid.
c. it is male.
d. it is female
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.
