How many genes are present in humans with males and females?

Both males and females have approximately 20,000 to 25,000 protein-coding genes in their genome. The total number of genes in humans is relatively consistent between males and females, as the majority of genes are located on the autosomes (non-sex chromosomes), of which individuals have two copies (one from each parent). However, males have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes. Therefore, there are some genes on the sex chromosomes that are present in different dosages between males and females. For example, males have genes on the Y chromosome that females do not possess, and females have two copies of genes on the X chromosome, while males have only one copy.
