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.

Give one example of an extrinsic homeostatic mechanism overriding an intrinsic homeostatic process.
NeTakaya

Answer:

Extrinsic regulatory mechanisms are external and depend on the firing of some factor outside the population itself. Among them are interspecific competition, food and space restrictions, very strong climatic variations, weathering and inharmonious relationships with other populations (parasitism and predatism).

Good examples of interspecific competition appear when rabbits, caves, rats compete for the same plant, or different fish and birds, such as the heron, vie for the same species of smaller fish. This is because these different species keep their populations in the same ecological niche. Competition is often so strong that some species eventually, as one example of an extrinsic homeostatic mechanism overriding an intrinsic homeostatic process is their disappearance or migration to other regions.

In this competition, the presence of adaptations among individuals in the population that promote better food search, speed, vision, and others can make the difference between elimination and survival.
