The number of pair (s) of ‘sex chromosomes’ in the ‘zygote’ of humans is one.
Option: (a)
Explanation:
- ‘Zygote’ is the result of the fusion of the male and the female gametes resulting in the ‘formation of zygote’.
- A zygote hence contains the ‘same number of chromosomes’ as the adult individual. The zygote inherits one of the sex chromosome from each of the parents.
- Therefore, in a zygote there are two sex chromosome or a pair of ‘sex chromosomes’.
- The sex chromosomes can be control the secondary sexual behaviour.
