Sex chromosomes contain genes that determine the sex of a person. Two X chromosomes result in a female and one X plus a Y result in a male.

In those chromosomes, there are genes specific for each gender, and in those chromosomes, there are genes that code for certain traits- the sex-linked traits.
These traits will be inherited according to the sex chromosomes they receive from their parents. Women recieve one X from the mother and the other from the father while  men recievethe X from the mother and the Y from the father).

This will cause a <u>difference</u> in the expression of genes because women can become carriers of a certain disease while men either manifest it or don't (there are no carriers since the X chromossome is different than the Y)

In autosomal genes, the expression doesn't depend on the gender since the autosomal chromosomes contain genes that code for the same trait, and so the expression on autosomal genes in men and women are <u>similar</u><u>.</u>

First of all you are already known about the genes found in male and female Autosomal genes are not expressed by the X or Y chromosome. Sex linked genes are expressed by the X or Y chromosome. Expression of autosomal and sex-linked genes are the same in that both require undergo meiosis and crossing-over may occur and transcription and translation of genes are required.

Design a laboratory-based experiment to test the hypothesis that algae need light to grow.
Shalnov [3]

The same algae is subjected to conditions in which one is exposed to light and another is not exposed to light while the nutrients in the both systems are kept the same.

<h3>What is algae growth?</h3>

The growth of algae is the process by which the organism increases in size. Now we know that that the algae is photosynthetic hence light must be required for its growth.

In order to verify this, the same algae is subjected to conditions in which one is exposed to light and another is not exposed to light while the nutrients in the both systems are kept the same.

The results of this experiment must confirm that the algae exposed to light grows better than the algae that was not exposed to light.

1) Bacteria respond to changes in their environments, such as nutrient availability, by regulating their metabolic pathways. Des
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Examples:

- Short-term adaptation: feedback inhibition

- Long-term adaptation: regulation of gene expression

Explanation:

Feedback inhibition is a mechanism where the product of a chemical reaction is utilized to modulate its own subsequent synthesis. In bacteria, feedback inhibition allows regulating different metabolic pathways in response to environmental conditions by modulating enzyme activity through enzyme reaction products. Moreover, bacteria may also respond to environmental inputs by long-term changes in gene expression. For example, bacteria contain transcription factors activated during stress, which are able to activate the transcription of particular genes into messenger RNAs (mRNAs) that would subsequently be used to generate particular enzymes by the process of translation. These transcription factors may bind to specific DNA motifs in order to promote transcriptional activity, thereby regulating the production of the corresponding enzyme.
