Probability is the likelihood that an event will happen.

The probability of becoming a boy is 1 out of 2 and the probability of becoming a girl is 1 out of 2.

Inside of our cells, we have these things that are called chromosomes. Chromosomes control whether we become a boy or a girl.

Mom's have two X chromosomes in all of her cells and dad's have one X and one Y chromosomes in each of his cells.

Before a child is born, both parents give one of their chromosomes. The mom will always give you an X but if the dad gives an X too, you become a girl. If the dad gives you a Y, you become a boy.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Dr. Leland Hartwell used baker’s yeast, <em>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</em>, as a model system, which was a highly suitable model for cell cycle studies. He introduced the concept of Checkpoints where he said cells are arrested if damaged so that the cells repair system can work to correct such damages. Dr. Paul Nurse used a different type of yeast, <em>Schizosaccharomyces pombe</em>, a type of yeast distantly related to the baker's yeast as a model organism.

Which of the following pathways does NOT directly deliver materials to lysosomes? A. Exocytosis B. Phagocytosis C. Autophagy D.

Lelu [443]

Answer: Option A) Exocytosis

Explanation:

Unlike the other pathways mentioned, exocytosis involves the outward movement of outside the cells. This is vital in the removal of waste products generated within the cell.

Thus, exocytosis is the answer because it expels materials out of the cell, rather than deliver materials to lysosomes
