Answer:

B: half of your chromosomes from your father and half from your mother

Step-by-step explanation:

People usually have two copies of each chromosome. One copy is inherited from their mother (via the egg) and the other from their father (via the sperm). A sperm and an egg each contain one set of 23 chromosomes.
