True or false: the y chromosome is larger than the x chromosome?

i need this answer for my biology finals and i cant find it on googleTrue or false: the y chromosome is larger than the x chromosome?
False. The reason it's called the Y chromosome is because it more closely resembles the letter Y. The fourth ';arm'; that makes a Y look like an X is notably smaller in a Y chromosome, giving it a Y-ish shape. So, X %26gt; Y.True or false: the y chromosome is larger than the x chromosome?
false the y chromosome is way smaller than the X chromosome. The Y chromosome also has a very small amount of gene on it. That is Why males are considered to be deficient (meaning they have less genes than females)
The X chromosome is bigger and greater than the Y chromosome
