Answer:

The chromosomes needed for an embryo to become a female are the X chromosomes from a female egg and X chromosome from the male sperm cells though, males have both X and Y chromosomes.

In addition, the chromosomes needed to have an embryo to become male is the X chromosome from the female and the Y chromosome from the male.

Therefore, if the X and Y chromosomes unite, then the child will be male and if X and X chromosome will bind, a female child will be born.
