Answer:

B) The sex of a new organism is determined by whether an X-bearing or Y-bearing sperm fertilizes the ovum

Explanation:

The X and Y chromosomes determines the sex of mammals. Men have 46XY and women have 46XX chromosomes and these chromosomes are in pairs of 23. The female have XX, if the egg receives another X from the male sperm it will result in XX and a female is formed. But if the egg receives Y chromosome from the sperm XY if formed and that is male. The Y chromosome is the carrier of the gene that forms the testis.

Suppose you examined a pedigree of a large family, going back 6 generations. In generation 5, a woman ("G5W") has a serious gene
miv72 [106K]

 

Explanation:

There is found a mutation in G5W parents during the gamete formation created X-linked dominant disease allele. As the expression of the allele determines the allele that dominant or recessive. Because sometimes the allele becomes complete even then it is incomplete. In many cases, these alleles occur together or express at the same time that is called co dominance. The X-linked inheritance works differently with male and female because the male has XY chromosome and female has only XX chromosome. So a man has chances their son 50% but daughter has more or 99% chances to be inherited by the disease. Females only pass their X chromosome to each son or daughter so the chances from a female dominant inheritance 50% chances of X-linked disease.
