Question

Question:

Each human has a specific number of chromosomes within each cell. These chromosomes are inherited from their parents and determine the sex of the individual.

In a human male, how many chromosomes are inherited from each parent, and what would the sex chromosomes be?

Answer 1

A human has 23 pairs of chromosomes, so 46 altogether. This means that if people were to have a child, they would each pass on half of their own chromosomes, 23, to the child, which would mean that the child inherits 23 chromosomes from each parent.
The sex chromosomes for males are X and Y.

I hope this helps!
