In a chromosome pair, a single chromosome is called a chromatid and the two chromotids in the pair are commonly called "sister chromatids."
Suppose you're looking through a microscope and you see and exchange of chromosome segments between chromosome pair 7 and chromosome pair 15 This condition is an example of?
It's a translocation, specifically a balanced translocation.
What genes control the gender of a person?
the very last pair. males have an xy combination, while females have an xx combination the y chromosome determines that the person develops into a male
What part of a cell determines the characteristic of a living thing?
The DNA in a cell determines the characteristics of living things
What are heterologous chromosomes?
Heterologous chromosomes are those thatdo not belong to the same pair. To give you an example, there are two copies of chromosome 6 and two copies of chromosome 8 in the human genome. If we were to compare one copy of chromosome 6 with one copy of chromosome 8, the pair would be heterolgous
Is it true or false that the 23rd chromosome pair determines the gender of a child?
TRUE.
Which pair of chromesomes determines gender?
Chromosome pair 23 determines the gender of a human. These chromosomes will either be two X's for females, or an X and a Y for males.
What does the 23 pair chromosome determine?
The twenty-third pair of chromosome determines gender. Males are distinguished of having an X and a Y. Females are distinguished to have a X with another X.
How is gender inheritance?
Gender is inherited from your parent's 23rd chromosome. The (XX) chromosome pair is for a female and the (XY) chromosome pair is for a male. You get a (X) chromosome from your mother because she has two (x)'s. Her 23rd chromosome is (XX). It's your father's chromosome that determines what gender you are. His 23rd chromosomes were (XY). If you get an (X) from him, you become a girl. If you get a (Y) chromosome from him, you become a boy. This all happens when your mother's egg is fertilized.
What is the term for the two sets of chromatids?

A trisomy. Trisomies are usually fatal in all chromosome pairs except 5, 13, 21 (these cause Down syndrome), and 23 (The chromosome pair that determines gender)
Through a microscope you see an exchange of chromosome segments between chromosome pair 7 and chromosome pair 15 This condition is an example?
translocation
