Sex chromosomes are sex determining chromosomes in males and females. In males the sex
chromosomes are XY, in females it is XX.
The X chromosome in humans is submetacentric belonging to ‘C’ group.
The X chromosome is notably larger and has a more active euchromatin region.
The Y chromosome is acrocentric and belongs to ‘G’ group.
Because only males have the Y chromosome, the genes on this chromosome tend to be involved in
male sex determination and development.
