text: One of the sex chromosomes has a pair of identical sex chromosomes (XX), the other may have a single sex chromosome which may be (XO) or paired with Y chromosomes (XY).
text: Males typically have two different kinds of sex chromosomes (XY), and are called the heterogametic sex.
text: In humans, sex chromosomes can be either X or Y. People get one chromosome from each parent.
text: Every cell in the human body contains 23 pairs of chromosomes (threadlike structures into which DNA is packed), with one of those pairs comprising the sex chromosomes (an X and Y for males and XX for females).
text: An example of monosomy is Turner syndrome, where the individual is born with only one sex chromosome, an X.
text: Females typically have two of the same kind of sex chromosome (XX), and are called the homogametic sex.
text: In most cells, humans have 22 pairs of these chromosomes plus the two sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males) for a total of 46.
text: Each organism of a species is normally characterized by the same number of chromosomes in its somatic cells, 46 being the number normally present in humans, including 22 pairs of autosomes and the two sex chromosomes (XX or XY), which determine the sex of the organism.

text: In a process called karyotyping, the pairs of autosomal chromosomes can be ordered, classified and numbered according to their size and the twenty-third pair are the sex chromosomes (XX for females and XY for males).
text: Out of these, 2 are sex chromosome (XX or XY), and 44 are autosomes.
text: Male sex chromosomes (XY) are non-homologous, while female sex chromosomes (XX) are homologous.
text: Autosomes (22 pairs) are homologous in humans, whereas male sex chromosomes (XY) are non-homologous, while female sex chromosomes (XX) are homologous.

text: The Sex Chromosome: XX or XY
text: Thus, 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (XY), thus 46 chromosomes are present in our body cells.
text: Pairs 1 to 22 are identical or nearly identical; the 23rd pair consist of the sex chromosomes, which are either X or Y.
