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.

What is the purpose of atp in both cellular respiration and photosynthesis?
Stells [14]

Answer:

Aids energy transfer from a molecule to another

Explanation:

ATP aids energy coupling, combining exergonic reactions to endergonic reactions. In PHOTOSYNTHESIS, ATP is produced in the light reactions for Calvin cycle to produce sugar. In CELLULAR RESPIRATION, sugar undergoes oxidized to produce ATP needed to energize cellular metabolism (ATP is the energy currency of the cell).

ATP is a major source of energy for each and every biological process. In PHOTOSYNTHESIS energy is changed to ATP in the light-dependent phase which is used for synthesis in the dark phase.

ATP is a needed in RESPIRATION. ATP is the energy currency of the cells, sometimes called the “molecular currency” of energy distribution.

<span>Plant cells will also change with the degree of specialization. It means that when is is a higher developed organism then it will have a higher degree of specialization. For the second question,Somatic cells of animal callus are most common to the plant cell. It is because just like a callus, the tissue of the plant cells are thick and it serves them as protection from friction.</span>
