The human Y chromosome showing the SRY gene which codes for a protein regulating sexual differentiation. Sexual differentiation in humans is the process of development of sex differences in humans . It is defined as the development of phenotypic structures consequent to the action of hormones produced following gonadal determination. [ 1 ]
There are two kinds of sex chromosomes–X and Y. In humans and in almost all other mammals, females carry two X chromosomes, designated XX, and males carry one X and one Y, designated XY. [1] A human egg contains only one set of chromosomes (23) and is a haploid. Sperm also have only one set of 23 chromosomes and are therefore haploid.
The X chromosome is part of chromosome group C, and the Y chromosome is part of group G. Bands and sub-bands are annotated to the right of each chromosome (or chromosome pair), and the gene for the sex-determining region Y protein is located at Yp11.2.
Among many species of the salamanders, the two chromosomes are only distinguished by a pericentric inversion, so that the banding pattern of the X chromosome is the same as that of Y, but with a region near the centromere reversed. (fig 7 [62]) In some species, the X is pericentrically inverted and the Y is ancestral. In other species it is the ...

In humans, the presence of the Y chromosome is responsible for triggering male development; in the absence of the Y chromosome, the fetus will undergo female development. In most species with XY sex determination, an organism must have at least one X chromosome in order to survive. [2] [3]
