Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Twenty-two of these pairs, called autosomes, look the same in both males and females. The 23rd pair, the sex chromosomes, differ between males and females. Females have two copies of the X chromosome, while males have one X and one Y chromosome. The 22 autosomes are numbered by size.
Detailed explanation-2: -Autosomes carry a majority of your gene information and can tell you a lot about your ancestry, your health, and who you are at the most biologically personal level. As more people take autosomal DNA tests and testing technology becomes more precise, the results of these tests are becoming more accurate.
