A. The Sex.
This is because of the last pair int he Karyotype. which is used to determine the sex of a human (XX or XY). In this case because there are 2 long chromosomes, this is a female (XX), but if there was one long and one short, that would be a male (XY). This can also be seen if the chromosome types are labeled like in this diagram. <span />
That is true. Some transgenic animals grow faster because they have extra copies of growth hormone genes.
A vascular plant is a plant that is characterized by the presence of conducting tissue.
There are often not more than one or two independent variables tested in an experiment, otherwise it is difficult to determine the influence of each upon the final results. There may be several dependent variables, because manipulating the independent variable can influence many different things.
