How long does a y chromosome carry a boy stay in a womans body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The Y chromosome is found in the nucleus of every cell in a male's body. It is never found in the nucleus of any cells in a female. The only time it could be found in a female would be in half of the sperm cells from a man after intercourse which might survive for a week, and in a male fetus growing in a woman's uterus.
