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.

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Im confused but if your asking for Medel's first law it would be states that for the pair of alleles an individual has of some gene (or at some genetic locus), one is a copy of a randomly chosen one in the father of the individual, and the other if a copy of a randomly chosen one in the mother, and that a randomly chosen one will be copied

What are the different parts of the DNA model?
leva [86]

Answer:

DNA is made up of molecules called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group and a nitrogen base. The four types of nitrogen bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). The order of these bases is what determines DNA's instructions, or genetic code.

Compared to its surroundings, the concentration of solutes is low inside a cell so, the cell is in a hypertonic, hypotonic or is
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The cell is in a hypertonic solution.

Explanation:

The solution is hypertonic because the amount of solute(s) is higher outside of the cell than it is inside the cell, so the solvent (e.g. water) would move from the cell to the solution in order to obtain equilibrium between the two.
