Answer: The father determines the biological sex of a baby
Explanation: Human beings have two sex chromosomes, males have XY chromosomes whereas females have XX chromosomes. During fertilization, an egg from a woman fuses with a sperm cell from a man to form a zygote. Women have two X chromosomes (XX) and any point in time they can only release an egg bearing an X chromosome but males have one X and one Y chromosome, therefore they can either release a sperm cell with an X chromosome or a sperm cell with a Y chromosome. When an egg with X-chromosome fuses with a sperm cell with an X chromosome, the resulting baby is a female but when an egg with an X chromosome fuses with a sperm cell with a Y chromosome, the resulting baby is a male.
What makes the difference in both sexes is the Y chromosome from the man, therefore the father determines the biological sex of a baby.

Food molecules contain chemical energy which is released when its chemical bonds are broken.
Food undergoes digestion in the digestive system and is broken down into its monomer units. Carbohydrates, which are the principal source of energy, are broken down into glucose. Glucose is the monomer unit of carbohydrates.
Glucose then is taken up by cells and is used in cellular respiration, which involves three main stages namely glycolysis, Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain, through which a glucose molecule is processed to form at least 36 molecules of ATP.
ATP is the form of energy that cells use.
If dominant allele = p, and recessive allele = q,
and p+q = 1, then:
So if 75% have the p, then p^2 = homozygous dominant
And if the other 25% have the q, the q^2 = homozygous recessive
Now those remaining MUST be the heterozygous, thus 2pq are those:
2pq = 2(.75)(.25) = .375
Therefore homozygous dominant are 56.3% and heterozygous are 37.5%
