<h2>The Y chromosome </h2>

Explanation:

  • The Y chromosome is one of the two sex chromosomes in humans (the other is the X chromosome)
  • The sex chromosomes form one of the 23 pairs of human chromosomes in each cell
  • The Y chromosome spans more than 59 million building blocks of DNA (base pairs) and represents almost 2 percent of the total DNA in cells
  • Each person normally has one pair of sex chromosomes in each cell
  • The Y chromosome is present in males, who have one X and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosome
  • The Y chromosome is much smaller than the X chromosome and likely contains 50 to 60 genes that provide instructions for making proteins
  • Only males have the Y chromosome, the genes on this chromosome tend to be involved in male sex determination and development hence unlikely to contain any of the genes that are absolutely necessary for survival
  • Sex is determined by the SRY gene, which is responsible for the development of a fetus into a male

How do volcanoes benefit the planet by creating different kinds of new land?
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Volcanoes are renowned for their destructive power.

Explanation:

Volcanoes come in all shapes and sizes. Some volcanoes form majestic mountains, like Mt. Rainier in Washington State, and others have a very low, broad profile. Volcanic land forms are controlled by the geological processes that form them and act on them after they have formed. Thus, a given volcanic land form will be characteristic of the types of material it is made of, which in turn depends on the prior eruptive behavior of the volcano. Although later processes can modify the original land form, we should be able to find clues in the modified form that lead us to conclusions about the original formation process.
