प्रश्न
Gender of child is determined by the male partner of couple. Explain with reasons whether this statement is true or false.
उत्तर
Human females have two X chromosomes (XX) and human males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY). Therefore, the eggs produced by females have only X chromosomes while the sperms produced by males can have either X or Y chromosome. If an unfertilised egg fuses with a sperm containing X chromosome, then it gives rise to a girl child having two X chromosomes. If an unfertilised egg fuses with a sperm containing Y chromosome, then it gives rise to a male child having one X and one Y chromosome.
