Correct question:

The hypothalamus __________.

a) influences the function of only one lobe of the pituitary gland.

b) synthesizes all of the hormones produced by the pituitary gland.

c) regulates both reproduction and body temperature.

d) produces only inhibitory hormones.

Answer:

C) Regulates both reproduction and body temperature.

Explanation:

The hypothalamus is a small but important area in the center of the brain. It plays an important role in hormone production and helps to stimulate many important processes in the body and is located in the brain, between the pituitary gland and thalamus.

The hypothalamus’ main role is to keep the body in homeostasis as much as possible.

Homeostasis means a healthful, balanced bodily state.

The hypothalamus acts as the link between the endocrine and nervous systems to achieve this. It plays a part in many essential functions of the body such as: body temperature, thirst, appetite and weight control, emotions, sex drive, blood pressure and heart rate, production of digestive juices and balancing bodily fluids.

Answer: The father determines the biological sex of a baby

Explanation: Human beings have two sex chromosomes, males have XY chromosomes whereas females have XX chromosomes. During fertilization, an egg from a woman fuses with a sperm cell from a man to form a zygote. Women have two X chromosomes (XX) and any point in time they can only release an egg bearing an X chromosome but males have one X and one Y chromosome, therefore they can either release a sperm cell with an X chromosome or a sperm cell with a Y chromosome. When an egg with X-chromosome fuses with a sperm cell with an X chromosome, the resulting baby is a female but when an egg with an X chromosome fuses with a sperm cell with a Y chromosome, the resulting baby is a male.

What makes the difference in both sexes is the Y chromosome from the man, therefore the father determines the biological sex of a baby.

Genotype. A human being's genome is made up of approximately 3 billion base pairs which make up about 2000 genes. Individuals, however, differ slightly in the sequence of their DNA in some regions. This unique genome identity is the indivudual genotype. Sequence of DNA in a genome can nowadays be determined through sequencing using Next Generation Sequencing machines

Urine forms as some of the blood plasma spills out, some of these spilled plasma components are taken back up into the blood, and other material is selectively sent out to be added to the urine. In other words, there are three main things happening to form urine.
