Human chorionic gonadotropin is secreted from the placenta. The correct option is D.
<h3>What is HCG?</h3>
HCG is known as Human Chorionic Gonadotropin.
It is a hormone secreted by the placenta during pregnancy.
The hormone specifically functions to thicken the wall of the uterus in order to be able to support the growing embryo.
It also signals to the body system to halt the process of menstruation.

It turns out that many materials can be solid at a higher temperature if the pressure is also higher. so even though it is hotter in the inner core the pressure in the core is also higher and you can have a solid iron nickel instead of liquid
Phospholipid can occur in a polar cell.

Answer:
B. The father did not contribute a sex chromosome to his daughter due to nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes. The daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.
A.The mother's X chromosomes failed to separate during meiosis, and the daughter inherited two X chromosomes with the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. The father contributed no sex chromosomes.
Explanation:
As seen in the question above, a little girl was diagnosed with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, which is an X-linked recessive condition caused by a mutation in the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.
The little girl's parents do not have the syndrome, and no one in the little girl's paternal family presented this syndrome, however, we know that the maternal grandfather of the little girl's mother had the syndrome, which means that it was the mother's genetic material that contributed to the development of the syndrome in the little girl. This was because the little girl did not receive any X chromosomes from her father, but she inherited the two X chromosomes from her mother that coded for the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. This happened because the mother's X chromosome disjuction did not occur during meiosis I.
As shown above, the father did not contribute any sex chromosomes to his daughter, which means that the daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.
