When twins are the result of two eggs being fertilized at the same time (non identical twins) there is some evidence to show that there is a genetic basis for this kind of twins. However, it is only their mother that has any effect on the chances of having non identical twins; there is no known mechanism for a father to cause the release of more than one ovum
When twins are the result of the zygote splitting into two embryos (identical twins) then this is considered a random act nobody is responsible.
In humans, sex determination is based on the presence or absence of the Y chromosome. If the individual has a Y chromosome, they will develop into a male (XY). If they do not have a Y chromosome, they will develop into a female (XX). Key genes on the Y chromosome, such as the SRY gene, trigger the development of male characteristics.
Genes on the Y chromosome are responsible for male sex determination and other male-specific traits. They play a crucial role in the development of male reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics.
Yes, copulation does occur in humans. It refers to sexual intercourse between a male and a female that culminates in reproduction through the transfer of sperm from the male to the female's reproductive tract.
Male (and female) mosquitoes feed on flowers. However, it is only the female mosquito which bites humans. "She" does this in order to obtain proteins from the blood plasma, which she needs for her eggs. (The male mosquito does not need these proteins, hence it does not bite the human.) Since the female mosquito is the only one being exposed to human blood, it is the only one which will transmit its contents, including malaria. :)
Plants can be both male and female, or have both male and female parts within the same plant. Some plants have separate male and female individuals, while others have flowers that contain both male and female reproductive organs.
The sex determination in humans is determined by the male parent through the presence of the X or Y chromosome in the sperm. The female parent always contributes an X chromosome. If the sperm carries an X chromosome, the resulting offspring will be female (XX), and if it carries a Y chromosome, the offspring will be male (XY).
male
The element responsible for determining male sex in humans is the Y chromosome.
It happens in sexual intercourse. If the sperm is a male and the egg is female it will be male but if both are female, it will be female!
In humans, which sex chromosome determines if an offspring is a male or female?
The pronouns for humans in any context are: A male = he, him, his A female = she, her, hers Plural (male, female, or both) = they, them, theirs, their
No, there is a condition called XXY where it is a cross over of male and female. Other than that, yes male and female are the standard.
Male mosquitoes do not bite humans or animals because they do not feed on blood. Female mosquitoes, on the other hand, require blood to develop their eggs and are the ones responsible for biting. Additionally, male mosquitoes have bushier antennae compared to females.
They were humans. A male and female
And male and female reproductive systems are responsible for breeding.
In humans a male reproductive cell is the sperm, while the female reproductive cell is the egg.
Genitalia means the male and female reproductive organs. In humans, the female genitalia is the vagina and the male genitalia is the penis.
