Study Notes
- Development of the reproductive system varies by organism's sex
- Sex is determined by a combination of chromosomal, genetic, and hormonal factors
- Chromosomal sex determination occurs at fertilization
- Anomalies in chromosomal sex determination can result in aneuploidy
- Chromosomes X and Y differ in size and gene content
- Over 1400 genes are on chromosome X, encoding functions for both sexes
- Mutations in X-linked genes are more common in males
- X-linked mutations from the mother affect sons more than daughters
- X-linked inheritance is associated with disorders such as hemophilia and color blindness
- The text provides a link to a map of human chromosomes.
