The person should be a male.


Only male carries XY chromosomes, meanwhile female carries XX chromosomes. "Heterozygous for the X and Y chromosomes" means that the person have both X and Y chromosomes in their cells, therefore only males fits the description.


This is also why the birth rate of girl or a boy is always 50%, it is because the sex of a person is only determined by the sperm from a male. Each sperm either carries a X or a Y chromosome, never the both. Therefore, the chances of a X or a Y sperm fertilising an X egg is always 50%, also explains why both female or male must have at least one X chromosome because an egg always carry an X.

Transcription in bacteria differs from transcription in a eukaryotic cell because __________________________. (a) RNA polymerase
Serggg [28]

The correct answer is: (a) RNA polymerase (along with its sigma subunit) can initiate transcription on its own.

More differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic transcription:

• In prokaryotes transcription occurs in the cytoplasm (unlike in eukaryotes in nucleus) and it is simultaneous with translation,

• In prokaryotes there is only one type of RNA polymerase (in eukaryotes there are three types of them).

• There is no sigma subunit in eukaryotes, the initiation of transcription begins thanks to initiation factors.

• Promoter region in prokaryotes contains pribnow box, while in eukaryotes it contains TATA and CAT box.

Osmosis which is a form of passive transport
nalin [4]

Answer:

represents the flow of water through its concentration gradient, through a semi-permeable membrane.

Explanation:

This means that water flows from where it is in a higher concentration to a place where it is in a lower concentration to try to equalize the concentrations of both solutions.

Osmosis is an example of diffusion when molecules tend to be evenly distributed in space.
