The answer is: from mother
In a human diploid somatic cell (2n), there are<span> in total 46 chromosomes</span> - 22 autosomal chromosomes present in two copies and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. This means there are 23 pairs of chromosomes. In males, there is one X and one Y chromosome (XY) while in females, there are two XX chromosomes (XY).
During the formation of gametes, a female could give only X chromosomes, so gametes from the mother contain one X chromosome. But, a male could give X or Y chromosome, so gametes from the father contain either X or Y chromosome.
Female gamete and male gamete fuse to form a zygote. Male zygote must contain both X and Y chromosome. It inherits Y chromosome only from the father, so X chromosome must be inherited from the mother.
The correct answer to this question is a: metamorphosis. Many
insects take on multiple forms through different parts of their lifecycle. For
example, many lepidopteran species (i.e., butterflies) include a caterpillar
juvenile stage. To reach the adult stage, the juvenile stage has to go through
metamorphosis, where its adult form is strikingly different from its juvenile
form.
I believe the answer is most likely

Answer:
If T=tall and t=short, what will be the physical appearance of the offspring in the cross?
Explanation:
It looks like your question is incomplete, so I'll try to fill in the blanks.
The offspring will depend on the parents. Each parent will need two alleles, so each parent would have to be TT (tall), Tt (tall) or tt (short--this is the only way to have a short individual).
Here are all the possible crosses:
TT X TT = 100% TT (all tall)
TT X Tt = 50% TT, 50% Tt (all tall)
TT X tt = 100% Tt (all tall)
Tt X Tt = 25% TT (tall), 50% Tt (tall), 25% tt (short)
tt X tt = 100% tt (short)
Note that if there is a T present in the genotype (TT or Tt), that individual will be tall. The only way to produce short offspring is for the both parents to have a copy of the short allele (t).
