The answer is: from mother

In a human diploid somatic cell (2n), there are<span> in total 46 chromosomes</span> - 22 autosomal chromosomes present in two copies and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. This means there are 23 pairs of chromosomes. In males, there is one X and one Y chromosome (XY) while in females, there are two XX chromosomes (XY).
During the formation of gametes, a female could give only X chromosomes, so gametes from the mother contain one X chromosome. But, a male could give X or Y chromosome, so gametes from the father contain either X or Y chromosome.
Female gamete and male gamete fuse to form a zygote. Male zygote must contain both X and Y chromosome. It inherits Y chromosome only from the father, so X chromosome must be inherited from the mother.

CAPACITY..

Limiting factors determine carrying capacity. The availability of abiotic factors (such as water, oxygen, and space) and biotic factors (such as food) dictates how many organisms can live in an ecosystem. Carrying capacity is also impacted by the availability of decomposers.

BIODIVERSITY...

While food and water supply, habitat space, and competition with other species are some of the limiting factors affecting the carrying capacity of a given environment, in human populations, other variables such as sanitation, diseases, and medical care are also at play.
