Answer:
1. The gender of the foetus is not revealed as per the law in order to avoid Female Foeticide.
2. The mother has (44+XX) chromosome while the father has (44+XY) chromosome. The gender of the child depends upon the chromosome contributed by the father. If the father contributed X chromosome, a girl is born whereas if he contributes a Y chromosome a boy is born.
3. Hence, the father is always responsible for the gender of the child.
