Question:

How certain chromosomes lead to the development of certain things? SRY?

Author: AMRIT KAUR



Answer:

- 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​
