CoachNo, females have two X chromosomes in each cell except for their egg cells, which have only one X chromosome.
XX results in what we call female
a broken X (that's a Y) gives what we call male.
(The weaker sex.)

What kind of charomosome do females transmit to offspring?
Females transmit an X chromosome to their offspring, as they carry two X chromosomes (XX). Males contribute either an X or a Y chromosome, determining the sex of the offspring (XX for female, XY for male).
How many chromosome and chromosome pairs in humans?
There are 46 chromosomes per cell, with 22 pairs and an XX pair for females or an XY pair for males.
What are xx chromosomes called?
The XX chromosome is female; the XY is male. They represent the 23 pair of human chromosomes
What kind of chromosome do females transmit of offspring?
Female transmit 23 chromosomes to the offspring. She has that unique chromosome called as X chromosome. This is transmitted to the offspring. From male you get either X or Y chromosome. From XX chromosome you get female child. From XY chromosome you get male child.
How sex is determined in Valanga Sp with regard to its chromosome?
Valanga species determine sex through a system called sex determination by chromosome complement (XX-XO system). Females have two sex chromosomes (XX), while males have only one sex chromosome (XO). This means that females have two sets of chromosomes, while males have only one.
What type of sex chromosomes do females have?
Female have two X chromosomes while males have an X and a Y chromosome.
Does the male or female pass colorblindess to the offspring?
It is on the X Chromosome (male have XY chromosome Females have XX Chromosome)
What is the correct way to describe the difference between males and females?
Males have an XY chromosome and females have XX.
What does a Barr body in a mammalian female cell represents?
A Barr body is an inactivated X chromosome in mammalian female cells, primarily serving to balance gene expression between males and females who have one active X chromosome. This process is known as Lyonization, which equalizes the dosage of X-linked genes in males (XY) and females (XX).
How many barr bodies are present in a normal xx female?
A normal XX female will typically have one Barr body, which represents the inactivated X chromosome. The other X chromosome is active, while the inactive X chromosome condenses into a Barr body during development to compensate for gene dosage between males and females.
What kind of charomosome do females transmit to offspring?
Females transmit an X chromosome to their offspring, as they carry two X chromosomes (XX). Males contribute either an X or a Y chromosome, determining the sex of the offspring (XX for female, XY for male).
A male sex cell is called a?
actually its not a sperm, its a chromosome. it can be a sperm but it is mostly referred as a chromosome, or DNA. Male DNA's are XY, Females are XX.
How many chromosome and chromosome pairs in humans?
There are 46 chromosomes per cell, with 22 pairs and an XX pair for females or an XY pair for males.
What are xx chromosomes called?
The XX chromosome is female; the XY is male. They represent the 23 pair of human chromosomes
Why males are afflicted with hemophilia more than females?
Because males have the chromosome XY. And Hemophilia attacks the X chromosomes, so if the disorder gets to the X chromosome of the male, it doesnt have another X chromosome to back it up like females do.(XX)
What combination of chromosomes is a female an a male?
Females typically have two X chromosomes (XX), while males typically have one X and one Y chromosome (XY).
Why can't a female inherit a gene found on the y chromosome?
Females do not have a Y chromosome, so they cannot inherit genes found on it. The Y chromosome is passed down from father to son, and females inherit two X chromosomes, one from each parent. Therefore, any gene found on the Y chromosome is not present in females.
