Since the liver is the primary organ for metabolism, then in the setting of liver injury there will be reduced metabolism of compounds such as hormones. If these hormones are not metabolized and degraded in the liver, then these hormone levels will increase.
<em>A particular example is that the hormone estrogen is increased in the setting of liver damage, causing males with liver failure to have feminine characteristics.</em>
1st conclusion: Organisms inherit two copies of each gene, one from each parent.
2nd conclusion: Organisms donate only one copy of each gene in their gametes.
Thus the two copies of each gene segregate or separate during gamete.
Hope this helpedXD
Answer
Gametes that fertilize an ovum are called the sperms
Explanation
The reproductive cells of an organism are called the gametes or sex cells. Female sex cells are the ova/egg where as male sex cells are the sperms. The sperms are stored in the scrotum after their production in the male testes where as the eggs for females mature in female ovaries. During fertilization, sex cells meet in the Fallopian tube.
