To determine if a child has an extra half of a chromosome, genetic testing such as a chromosomal microarray analysis or a karyotype test would be needed. These tests can identify any abnormalities in the number or structure of chromosomes in an individual's cells. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional or a genetic counselor for proper diagnosis and guidance.

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 gene for this trait is likely located on the Y chromosome. The Y chromosome is passed down from father to son, and since only males have a Y chromosome, the trait will only be passed down through male lineage.
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 :)
Y linked genes are passed only from who?
Y-linked genes are only passed from father to son because the Y chromosome is inherited exclusively in a paternal manner. Since females inherit an X chromosome from each parent, they do not receive a Y chromosome from their father.
In a family with parents who do not have hemophilia one son has hemophilia. Who was the carrier of the gene for hemophilia?
The mother was the carrier of the gene for hemophilia, which she passed on to her son. Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder, meaning that it is carried on the X chromosome. Since the father does not have hemophilia, he must have passed on a Y chromosome to his son.

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
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 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?
