In dog gametes, there are half the chromosomes contained in normal diploid cells. In the normal diploid cell of the dog there are 78 chromosomes, thus, in dog gametes, there are 39 chromosomes.
Similarly, in deer mouse brain cells there are 48 chromosomes since brain cells are diploid cells.
In gametes there are half of that number, so in deer mouse gametes there are 24 chromosomes.
The number of trials completed during the experiment would be the correct answer.
In homo sapiens(humans), males are the heterogametic sex meaning their sex chromosomes are not the same(=XY) while females are homogametic(=XX).
Sex linked traits or x linked traits are traits whose genes are present on the X chromosome. So if there is a recessive mutation in those genes, males will express that recessive trait. Basically males express everything that’s on their X chromosome because they only have 1, but females have 2 which helps “hide” the mutation and to not express the particular recessive trait.
That is why sex linked traits are more evident in males in the population and an example of that would be colorblindness.
Hope this helps:)
