Both the Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true. R is the correct explanation for A.
Explanation:
- In humans, sex determination is done by the XY type mechanism.
- Humans contain 23 pairs of chromosomes. 22 pairs of chromosomes are the same in both genders, which is called autosomes.
- The pair is distinct in both sex and is known as the sex chromosome.
- Females have XX chromosomes and males have XY chromosomes as sex chromosomes.
- When the X chromosome of female fuses with the X chromosome of a male, a girl child will be born
- Likewise, when the X chromosome of female fuses with the Y chromosome of a male, a boy child will be born.
- Thus, the sex chromosome of the male (father) determines the sex of the child.

Answer:
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
Explanation:
There is a single mismatched sex chromosome found in human males(XY).
Those are X Or Y. The females have only X chromosome in them(XX) . Therefore thev sex is determined highly based in the chromosome inherited from the father.
When X chromosome from the mother and X chromosome from the father are inherited, the resultant offspring has XX chromosome ie. the child is (♀️) female.
When X chromosome from mother and Y chromosome from the father are inherited, the resultant offspring has XY chromosome ie. The child is (♂️) male.
