What genetic material do you get from your mother?
If you are female, you receive half of your father's genetic material. If you are male, you receive almost half; the Y chromosome is missing some genes, so it is the mother's X chromosome and the genes on the top of it that solely determine certain characteristics in the son. These are called sex-linked characteristics.
If a trait is always transmitted directly from a father to all his sons and from those sons to all their son what chromosome would the gene for the character be likely on?
the Y chromosome
Who does a male child inherit his X chromosome from?
yes, some people have xxy chromosomes, a genetic mutation. Although I'm not sure if the extra chromosome is from the fathers sperm or sex cell. Hope this helps :)
What chromosome is in the left testicle?
Well certainly a Y chromosome. XY is the sex chromosomes of males. In male gametes they would be n. That is some sperm would contain a X chromosome that a male would give to a daughter and other sperm would contain a Y chromosome destined for a son.
Colorblind male not colorblind female can there kid be color blind?
He will always be colorblind in that case because the defective gene is carried on the "X" chromosome, which males only have one of. You see, the colorblindness gene is recessive, which means if it is paired with a regular color seeing gene it is hidden, and the person can still see the difference between red and green. Because males have only one "X" chromosome, if they get the colorblindness gene from their mother, it will always lead to colorblindness. Side note: Males cannot receive the colorblindness gene from their Father, as he cannot give a "X" chromosome to his son. If he did, his son would be a daughter.

Does chris Perez's son have down syndrome?
Yes Chris Perez's son does have chromosome down syndrome.
What conditions can be passed from father to son only?
Genetic conditions carried on the Y chromosome, such as hemophilia and Duchenne muscular dystrophy, can only be passed from father to son. This is because the Y chromosome is inherited exclusively from the father.
What relation would the son of a half sister be to you?
If your half-sister had a son that would be a half-nephew to you
If a trait is always transmitted directly from a father to all his sons and from those sons to all their son what chromosome would the gene for the character be likely on?
the Y chromosome
What is the condition that is carried on the x chromosome whereby an affected mother passes the condition to all sons?
for son x chromosome comes from mother and y chromosome from father. If the mother had both allele got affected then the transfer of disease is 100 %. If only one allele is affected then 50% possibility of son getting affected
Why can only the female pass hemophilia down to a son?
Males have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome while females have 2 X chromosomes. Thus wen a son is born, he inherits his father's Y chromosome and one of his mother's X chromosomes. Since the trait for hemophilia is located on the X chromosome, it must either be passed down from the mother or result from a spontaneous mutation.
Who does a male child inherit his X chromosome from?
yes, some people have xxy chromosomes, a genetic mutation. Although I'm not sure if the extra chromosome is from the fathers sperm or sex cell. Hope this helps :)
Why did Hercules have power?
He was the son of Zeus and therefore half-immortal.

You already have a son will you fall pregnant with a girl next?
There is no way to predict what the gender of your next child is- it just depends on whether the sperm carries the x chromosome or the y chromosome.
