Which statements comparing the chromosomes of a human male and a human female are true? Select all that apply.
Males and females carry entirely different sets of chromosomes
The chromosomes that are not sex chromosomes occur only in females
The 22 pairs that are not sex chromosomes are of the same types in both✓Bonne réponse
A male body cell holds only half as many chromosomes as a female body cell
A gene on the pairs that are not sex chromosomes can be inherited by a child of either sex✓Bonne réponse
Explication
Apart from the sex chromosomes the chromosome set is shared, so the same 22 types are present in both and carry the same genes in the same places. Imagining two entirely separate sets would mean a father could hand on almost nothing to a daughter, and the totals in a male and a female body cell are in fact the same.
