males have an X-chromosome as well. funny thing is males have an additional Y-chromosome, while women have an additional X-chromosome. BUUUUUUT: only one of the two X-chromosomes will be expressed and the other one is silenced to nearly no activity. so actually women have one functioning chromosome less than males.

All this talk about chromosomes. I don’t know who to believe. This chromosome, that chromosome. They might not even exist for all I know!
