A. What is the difference between homomorphic and heteromorphic chromosomes?
B. What is the difference between homogametic and heterogametic sexes?
C. Relate these terms to human sex determination.
Homework Answers
A)-Homomorphic chromosome pair which are not morphologically identical( e.g., sex chromosome)
Heteromorphic chromosome pair with some homology but differing in size, shape, or staining properties.
B)-Homogametic sex refers to the sex of a species in which the sex chromosome are same. For exampke in humans, female with two X chromosome.
Heterogametic sex refers to the sex of a species in which the sex chromosome are not the same. For example in humans, male, with an X and a Y sex chromosome.
