Question:
How certain chromosomes lead to the development of certain things? SRY?
Author: AMRIT KAURAnswer:
- Short segments at the ends of the Y chromosomes are homologous with the X, allowing the two to behave like homologs during meiosis in males - In mammals, a gene on the Y chromosome called SRY (sex-determining region on the Y) is responsible for development of the testes in an embryo
