Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
None of them can determine Explanation: Sex chromosomes in human female are XX and in human male are XY. The male produces X and Y chromosomes containing gametes, while females produce only X-containing gametes. Therefore, males determine the sex of offspring. Sex in humans is a monogenic trait as its decided by a single gender.
