Considering that males can have Klinefelter (XXY) syndrome, XYY, and normal XY chromosomal combinations, and females can have Tu

rner (XO) syndrome, poly-X (XXX, XXXX), and normal XX combinations, it is obvious that
(A) maleness results from the presence of only one X chromosome
(B) maleness results from the absence of two or more X chromosomes
(C) maleness results from the minimal presence of one Y chromosome
(D) femaleness results from the presence of two or more X chromosomes

Answer:

(C) maleness results from the minimal presence of one Y chromosome

Explanation:

Human males have one Y and one X chromosome as their sex chromosomes. However, the human males with Klinefelter (XXY) syndrome have two copies of X chromosome as the human males but also have one Y chromosome. Similarly, human females have two X chromosomes as sex chromosomes but the females with Turner (XO) syndrome have only one X chromosome and the females with poly-X (XXX, XXXX) have more than two X chromosomes.

This means that the  Y chromosome regulates sex in human beings. If one copy of the functional Y chromosome is present in the cells, the fetus will develop into a male. The absence of a functional Y chromosome will make the fetus develop into a female.

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

attacks the outermost phosphorous group of the incoming nucleotide.  

Explanation:

Transcription is the biological process where RNA is formed. As you may already know, RNA is an extremely important nucleic acid for genetic processes and the production of proteins. The transcription has three steps that are called start, elongation and end. In the elongation phase, the RNA strand is growing, at this time, RNA polymerase, which is the enzyme responsible for RNA elaboration, places the nucleotides, in the RNA strand, in the 5' - 3' direction. This enzyme causes the hydroxyl, which makes up the nucleotide at the 3' end of the forming RNA, to attack the phosphorus present in the incoming  ribonucleotide.

Why is Biology so hard?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Imagine studying a cell. That cell has billions of things you can learn about. Now imagine 37.2 trillion cells each a little bit different but still similar. Now imagine that multiplied by all the different people there are on earth. Now then include all the other types of living animals.

That's biology

Which of the following describes how a plant’s root system and shoot system work together?
MissTica

Answer:

The root and shoot systems facilitate the ability to absorb, CO2, light, water, and minerals. The root system consists of the roots, and the shoot system consists of the stems and leaves. Angiosperms and vascular plants rely on these two systems. Roots are nonphotosynthetic and starve unless photosynthesates are absorbed through the shoot system. The shoot system depends on the roots to absorb nutrients.
