as usual, during exam time, when i actually start reading textbooks, when i am bored enough to read the details, i find bits of information:
During meiosis in the male, the X and Y chromosomes separate from each other, producing two kinds of sperm, X-bearing and Y-bearing; the frequencies of the two types are approximately equal. XX females produce only one kind of egg, which is X-bearing. If fertilization were to occur randomly, approximately half the zygotes would be XX and the other half would be XY, leading to a 1:1 sex ratio at conception. However, in human beings, Y-bearing sperm have a fertilization advantage, and the zygotic sex ratio is about 1.3:1. During development, the excess of males is diminished by differential viability of XX and XY embryos, and at birth, males are only slightly more numerous than females (sex ratio 1.07:1). By the age of reproduction, the excess of males is essentially eliminated and the sex ratio is very close to 1:1.

"remember oh remember" when they reinstated the week-long mid-sem break (NUS), remember when they went to all the bloody trouble to shift their timetables to squeeze out one day to fit in the lessons. Bollocks.
