Recall that humans have 46 chromosomes in total, arranged in 23 pairs, including one pair of sex chromosomes.
Understand that gametes (sperm and egg cells) are produced through meiosis, a process that reduces the chromosome number by half.
Since meiosis halves the chromosome number, each gamete contains 23 chromosomes instead of 46.
Among these 23 chromosomes, one is a sex chromosome (either X or Y in sperm, and X in eggs).
Therefore, a typical human gamete contains exactly 1 sex chromosome.
