Question

Mother is responsible for the sex of a baby.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The sex of the child is completely dependent on the father and not mother. This is because men are XY and women are XX. This means that the woman can only donate one X chromosome to her child, while the father can either donate an X or a Y. If the father donates the X to the child, it will be XX and become a female, if the father donates a Y to the child, it will be XY and will become a male.
