What is the sex of Human having XXY with 22 pairs of autosomes?

Answers (2)

The sex of a human having XXY chromosomes with 22 pairs of autosomes is male.

A person usually has 46 chromosomes in each cell, which is divided into 23 pairs out of which 22 pairs of chromosomes are called autosomes, and the 23rd pair is known as Sex chromosome.


In general, there are only two genes in the sex chromosome, and if there are three genes in the sex chromosomes, then that is a disorder.


The male with XXY sex chromosome is suffering from zygote formation disorder called Klinefelter syndrome.
