Difference between sex chromosomes and auto system

Biology
2 answers:
Mademuasel [1]4 years ago
5 0

The main difference between autosomes and sex chromosomes is that autosomes are involved in determining the somatic characters of an individual and sex chromosomes are involved in determining the sex and the sex-related hormonal traits.

During meiosis the male XY sex-chromosome pair separates and passes on an X or a Y to separate gametes; the result is that one-half of the gametes (sperm) that are formed contains the X chromosome and the other half contains the Y chromosome. ... The X chromosome, being larger, carries many more genes than does the Y.

<span>s that a single on off switch can control the whole cluster of functionally related genes; these genes are coordinately controlled (ex: when Ecoli must make tryptophan for itself because the nutrient medium lacks this amino acid all the enzymes for the metabolic pathway are synthesized at one time)</span>

Describe and explain how blood flows from the foot to the lungs.
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

lungs:

The blood first enters the right atrium.

The blood then flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.

When the heart beats, the ventricle pushes blood through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery.

The pulmonary artery carries blood to the lungs where it “picks up” oxygen.

It then leaves the lungs to return to the heart through the pulmonary vein.

The blood enters the left atrium.

It drops through the mitral valve into the left ventricle.

The left ventricle then pumps blood through the aortic valve and into the aorta. The aorta is the artery that feeds the rest of the body through a system of blood vessels.

Blood returns to the heart from the body via two large blood vessels called the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava. This blood carries little oxygen, as it is returning from the body where oxygen was used.

The vena cavas pump blood into the right atrium and the cycle begins all over again.

Albinism is a recessive trait in humans that is controlled by a single gene. How many recessive alleles must a person have to ha
olga_2 [115]
Answer;
Two recessive alleles are the number of alleles that a person must have to have albinism.

Explanation;
When a trait is recessive, such as albinism, an individual must have two copies of a recessive allele to express that particular trait. Recessive alleles are denoted by a lowercase letter , such as b versus B. Only individuals with a bb genotye will express a recessive trait, hence, the offspring must receive one recessive trait from each parent to exhibit the recessive trait.
