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.

Which statement best describes the relationship between protein, amino acids, and DNA? (1 point)
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

The major relationship between protein and nucleic acid is the reproduction of DNA which contains the information on how cells are used together with RNA which helps to make protein. Both nucleic acid and protein they have four biomolecules which are common in both of them.

Short answer: Using a binary code, genes (DNA) specify how proteins (among other things) are to be synthesized.

Analogy: If DNA is a cooking book, genes are recipes, and proteins the dishes resulting from processing the recipe ingredients.
