A female's chromosome is XX while a male's chromosomes are XY. Females have 2 X chromosomes so if there is something wrong with one of their X chromosomes, they have a back-up one, however, males , since they only have one X chromosome, if something goes wrong with it then they don't have a back-up so they will then have a genetic deficiency. It is not the same principle with the Y chromosome though.

The body cells of human males have what two chromosomes?

The body cells of most humans have 46 chromosomes, which can be arranged into 23 pairs. One chromosome in each pair comes from the mother and the other chromosome comes from the father. Of the 23 pairs, 22 pairs (the body chromosomes, or autosomes) are the same in males and females. The 23 rd pair, called the sex chromosomes, is different in males and females. In females, the sex chromosomes are the same and are called X chrosomes. In males, the sex chromosomes are different. One is an X chromosome (inherited from your mother or your father) and the other is a smaller chromosome called the Y chromosome (inherited from your father). So, the two chromosomes which are found in human males (but not human females) are the sex chromosomes, X and Y. See: http://biology.about.com/library/weekly/aa091103a.htm
