Answer:
The answer is True
Explanation:
The female chromosome is XX, while the male chromosome is XY.
If an X-chromosome-carrying sperm fertilises an X-chromosome-carrying ovum or egg, the child produced will be a girl (female). This is because the infant will have a XX chromosome combination.
If a sperm with the Y chromosome fertilises an ovum with the X chromosome, the infant will have the XY chromosomal combination, and thus will be a male child.
