-a yflexible ymaterial ymade yout yof ysimilar ymaterial yto ycartilage. yIf ya yspecies yhas

y373K

gametes y- ycorrect yanswers y-sex ycells y(sperm yand yegg), yhumans yhave y23
ychromosomes yin yeach ysex ycell y(made yof y22 yautosomes), y1n, yhaploid ybecause
ythey yhave yhalf yas ymany yas yregular yhuman ycells. yIn ya yregular ycell y(not ysex ycell)
ythere yis ya ytotal yof y46 ychromosomes yin yeach ycell yor ya yset yof y23.
regular ycells y- ycorrect yanswers y-2n, yor ydiploid ya yset yof y23 ychromosomes yor y46
ychromosomes
sexual yreproduction ysimplified y- ycorrect yanswers y-a ysperm ywhich yis yhaploid y(n)
ywith y23 ychromosomes ycombines ywith yan yegg ywhich yis yalso yhaploid y(n) ywith y23
ychromosomes yto yform ya yzygote y(2n) ywhich ycreates y46 ychromosomes yor ydiploid
ythen yit yforms yan yembryo ywhich yturns yinto ya yfetus.
, autosomes y- ycorrect yanswers y-In ya ydiploid yor y2n yhuman ycell ythere yare y46
ychromosomes. y2 ysex ycells y(one yfrom ymom, yone yfrom ydad) yjoin ywith y44
yautosomes y(23 yfrom ymom y23 yfrom ydad). yMom yand ydad yhave yidentical ycells
ycalled yautosomes. y*These yare yessentially ychromosomes ythat yboth ymom yand ydad
yposess ythat yare ynot ydeterminants yof ythe yzygotes ygender y(the ysex ycells ydo ythis).
Mom yhas y22 yautosomes, yand ydad yhas y22 ythat yeach ywill ydonate.
In yaddition yto ythe y22 ychromsomes ythat ymom yand ydad ywill yboth ydonate, y1 ymore
ychromosome yhas yto ybe yadded yto ymake y23 ychromosomes yin ytotal yThis yis ythe
ysex ychromsome ywhich ydetermines ythe ysex yof ythe ybaby. yThese ysex ycells yare
ynot yidentical ylike yautosomes ybecause ythere yis yeither yan yX ychromsome yor ya yY
ychromsome ythat ycan ybe ydonated. yMom ycan ydonate yonly yan yX ychromosome.
yDad ycan ydonate yeither yan yX yor ya yY ychromosome.
sporophytes yand yhow ythey yreproduce ysimplified y- ycorrect yanswers y-sporophyte yis
yjust yanother yname yfor ya yplant. ysome ysporophytes yproduce yoversized yovaries
ywhich ypresents yitself yas ya yfruit. yThere yis ya yremains yof ya yflower yon yone yend yof
yit. yIf yyou ycut yinto ythe yovary ythere yare yfertilized yovules yor yseeds. yInside yof ythe
yseed yis yan yembryo yor yfertilized yegg. yWhen ywe yplant ya yseed ywe yshould ybe
yable yto ygrow ya ysporophyte ythrough ymitosis. yMany ysporophytes yproduce ya yflower
ywhich yis ydiploid y(2n). yThrough ymeiosis ysporophytes y(2n) yproduce yspores ywhich
yare yhaploid y(n). yOne ycell yin ythe ysporangia yundergoes ymeiosis. yAt ythe yend ywe
yget y4 yhaploid ycells yor ytwo ydiploid ycells. yA ybunch yof yhaploid ycells ycreate ya
ygametophyte. ySome yof ythese ygametophytes ydifferentiate yinto ygametes. yWhen ya
ygrain yof ypollen yreaches ythe yentrance yof yan yovary, yit yreleases ythe ysperm ythat
yfertilizes ythe yegg yand ycreates ya yzygote yor yegg. yThe yzygote/egg ydevelops yby
ymitosis yinto yan yembyro ywithin yan yovule/seed ywhich yis yinside yof yan yovary ythat
ystarts ythe yprocess yall yover yagain.
genotype y- ycorrect yanswers y-determines ygenetic ycode y(female: yXX. ymale yXY) ythe
yfather yis ythe yone ythat ydetermines ywhat ythe ysex yof ythe ychild ywill ybe ybecause
ythe ymom ycan yonly ydonate yan yX ychromosome.
