Answer 1

Answer C) fathers determine the gender of the offspring in humans

Answer 2

Answer: Statement 'C)' that Fathers always determine the gender or sex of the offspring in humans is true .

Explanation:
Reason and explanation behind the truth of this statement :

• Depending on whether a man's sperm carries an X chromosome or Y chromosome, a baby's sex is determined. A newborn girl (XX) is created when an X chromosome combines with the mother's X chromosome, while a boy is created when a Y chromosome combines with the mother's (XY)

• In humans, males always inherit their X chromosome from their mother and their Y chromosome from their father, but females always acquire an X chromosome from each parent. As a result, all human female somatic cells have two X chromosomes, and all human male somatic cells have an X and a Y chromosome .
• All other placental mammals also generate X and Y gametes, but females only produce X gametes . Sperm cells that contain the Y chromosome define maleness in this system, also known as the XX-XY system.
