Answer: C. Chromosomes

When an egg and sperm cell unite, fertilization follows. The chromosomes carry the genes that will be transferred to the offspring. They have threadlike bodies that made up of DNA and protein that carries hereditary information, which is used to help a cell grow and reproduce.

Furthermore, humans have 46 chromosomes and 23 in each sex cell and they are found in the nucleus of a cell.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Women who carry one copy of the mutated gene still have normal color vision because they have another copy, which is not mutated, in the other X chromosome that will be the dominant one. As a result, the women are carriers of the mutated gene but not color blind.

Explanation:

Colorblindness is a sex-linked mutation. A woman has two X chromosomes, while a man has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome. The mutated gene that causes color blindness is on the X chromosome, and it is OPN1LW. So if a woman has one mutated OPN1LW in one of her two X chromosomes, the OPN1LW gene in the other X chromosome will be the dominant one stopping the woman from being colorblind.

In the case of men, as they only have one X chromosome, if there is a mutation on the OPN1LW in the X chromosome, the men will be colorblind because there is no extra copy of the gene, as it is in women.
