The answer is A. The Y chromosome doesn't experience crossing-over.

The crossover of chromosomes is the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. In males, X and Y chromosomes pairs but they cannot exchange genetic material except at the ends of the chromosomes called pseudoautosomal regions. So, greatly, the Y chromosome doesn't experience crossing-over.

Through the process of elimination:
B. A mother gives X chromosome and a father gives Y chromosome to the son.
C. The mitochondria cannot be passed in the nucleus of a cell since it is another organelle.
D. It is thought that mitochondria is passed only from mother to her offspring, so they cannot vary greatly.

Place the following events of a reflex arc in the correct order: 1) motor neuron activation, 2) sensory neuron activation, 3) se

VikaD [51]

Answer:

The reflex arc follows this sequence of events

1. sensory receptor activation

2. sensory neuron activation

3.information processing

4. motor neuron activation

5. effector response

Explanation:

Reflex arc is the pathway of nerves during a reflex action. An example of a reflex arc is when we accidentally touch a hot object. First, the receptor in the skin detects a stimulus in this case the change in temperature. Second, the sensory neuron transmit the electrical impulses to the Central Nervous System for information processing. Then relay neurons connect sensory neurons to motor neurons. Third, motor neurons sends electrical impulses to an effector wherein the effector produces a response ( muscle contracts to move the hand away from the hot object. This happens in a split of seconds.
