Sex Determination: Who is responsible for the gender of a new born baby?

Welcome to our informative video where we delve into the fascinating world of chromosomes and unravel the mystery behind determining the sex of a child. Discover the fundamental building blocks of life - cells, which contain thread-like structures called chromosomes. Gain insights into human chromosomes, where each cell contains 46 chromosomes organized in 23 pairs. Explore the unique nature of sex chromosomes, the one pair that differs between males and females. Learn about the two types of sex chromosomes, namely X and Y, and their presence in male and female cells. Understand the crucial role of reproductive cells - sperm and eggs - which carry only 23 chromosomes, one from each pair. Witness the process of fertilization, where the combination of a sperm cell and an egg cell forms a zygote with 46 chromosomes, ultimately developing into a baby. Uncover the connection between the presence of certain sex chromosomes and the determination of a child's sex. Expand your knowledge on the influence of male reproductive cells in determining the gender of a child. Watch this video to gain a deeper understanding of chromosomes and the fascinating world of human reproduction.

chromosomes and cells, sex chromosomes, X and Y chromosomes, reproductive cells, sperm and eggs, zygote development, determining child's sex, male and female chromosomes, sex determination in humans, genetic inheritance, human reproduction, understanding chromosomes, child gender determination, biology of reproduction.Every organism is made from cells. Cells contain thread like structure known as chromosomes.

In humans, there are 46 chromosomes in each cell. And these chromosomes are found in pairs. So there are 23 pairs.

In male and female, all the pairs of chromosomes are same except one pair.
Chromosomes in this pair are called sex chromosomes.
Sex chromosomes can be of 2 types namely X and Y. In a male cell, both x and y chromosomes are present but in female cell 2 x chromosomes are present.

We know that male reproductive cells are known as sperm and female reproductive cells are known as eggs. reproductive cells are different from normal cells as they contain only 23 chromosomes. One from each pair.

When sperm cell and egg are combined together, they form a cell which has 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs. This new cell formed is called zygote and develops into baby.

Since reproductive cells have only 23 chromosomes, sperm cell can contain either x or y chromosome. And a egg cell will always have x chromosome. During reproduction, lot of sperm cells are released and only one sperm fertilises the egg.

when sperm containing Y chromosome fertilises the egg, resultant cell will have a sex chromosome containing x and y chromosome and the zygote will grow into a boy.

But when the sperm cell containing x chromosome fertilises the egg, resultant cell will have a pair of x chromosomes and the zygote will grow into a girl.

It is clear that a child will be a boy or girl , depends on male and not the female.

a summary of this video; We ALL have cells in our lovely bodies. One of these cells in each human is called the reproductive cells. A reproductive cell contains 23 chromosomes. For a male, the reproductive cell is known as sperm and for the female, the reproductive cell is known as the egg. Female = X and X. Male = X and Y. If the sperm reaching the egg is a X, it will create a female. (since X and X is a female) If the sperm reaching the egg is a Y, it will create a boy. (since X and Y is a male.)

am i the only one who's getting shivers whenever she says "chromosomes" in that weird elongated way????

Thank you for telling us about our chrOOOmosomes.

Who else is laughing while reading the comment section at the same time hearing the word on the video 🤣🙋

African men should watch this a couple of times...and stop accusing women of not giving them boy children. The sex of the child depends on them. This will stop polygamy marriages.

*World fokused X while Y is more important to determine Gender and Mnay divorce cases in some areas are because of only Women were considered responsible for Girls Birth*

[alickak]

this confuse me and will confuse me until I leave this earth

[bchaitu]

I couldn't concentrate due to the cROMOsome 🤣🤣

My last pregnancy with my DD my fiancé came into the bedroom while I was napping in the evening and asked me what I wanted for dinner. I could not decide, and he told me he was hungry so we needed to figure it out. I started bawling like a baby because I couldn’t figure out what I wanted and I knew he was hungry and it made me so sad! We laughed for so long after this. I didn’t know I could cry over food

We all have cells in our bodies. Cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes. One of these is unique, the sex chromosome. They can be either X or Y. Both X and Y chromosomes are present in a male, but two X chromosomes are present in a female. Sperm, the male reproductive cell, and egg, the female reproductive cell. Unlike other cells, they only contain 23 chromosomes. When one sperm cell and egg cell fuse, they form a zygote cell that has 23 pairs of chromosomes. If a sperm cell containing the Y chromosome fertilizes the egg, the egg will grow up to be a baby boy. However, if it contains an X chromosome, the egg will grow up to be a baby girl.

Not even a single soul:
Her: ChROmOsOmes~

Question - When a girl is born, they receive an X from the father and an X from the mother. I get that, but does the mother pass on the X from her maternal side or paternal side? This part confuses me, or is it possible the mother passes on both X's from their maternal and paternal side?

Why that much streched to tell chromosome

[MyBelch]

Also, a baby girl is born with all of her eggs, she never produces new ones. Males, however, produce and replace their sperm continiously starting at puberty. In this regard, it's more harmful to the reproductive system when women abuse their bodies. Damage could impact all of her eggs. Theoretically, a healthy male could repopulate China every few weeks, while a woman only has about 1 or two million eggs at birth, the vast majority of which are non-viable, and drops to zero at around age 50. Men stay fertile for decades beyond that.

I Mind Was Listening "Chromosomeeee" I Was laughing And I forget The Real Purpose that Why I'm watching This 🤦

[subhashs]

No, it's not just the father even mother is responsible for deciding the gender. For example if the environment inside the mother's reproductive organs is too hostile for Y chromosome than the chances of X category sperm to make it to the egg increases.

[alickak]

how can the male determine the sex of a child if he releases the sperm and walk away..how can he became responsible when is gone already?

[diegosinner]

we went from needing both cells to only needing the same two?? I wonder what can go wrong on the new borns

[dkp]

Wait what about all the other genders?

[harshgurav]

I’ll never forget chrooomosoes in my life ever again
