There are 40 chromosomes in germ cells of a ferret. How many sex chromosomes are there in a ferret's ovum?

To determine the number of sex chromosomes that are there in a ferret's ovum is 2 sex chromosomes.

Given the following data:

Sex chromosomes can be defined as a pair of chromosomes that are responsible for determining the gender of a living organism i.e whether an organism is either male or female.

To determine the number of sex chromosomes that are there in a ferret's ovum:

Mathematically, the number of chromosomes in an organism is given by the formula:

Where:

Substituting the given parameter into the formula, we have;

N = 2 sex chromosomes

answer; ///i believe the answer is (antioxidant);

you are certainly talking about this picture:

a: is the label of the white square, it is showing the  replication fork, formed by helicase (d) ==> so it is the site of dna separation and replication 

b: is a new dna brand that is following directly the replication fork, so it is continuous ==> built continuously from 5' to 3

c: dna polymerase cannot replicate dna on its own, it needs the of their proteins, and one of them plays the role of a clamp which fixes  the dna with the dna template and increases  the processivity of the enzyme. ==>   stops polymerase from falling off the  template.

d: is the enzyme responsible for forming the replication fork (helicase) ==> unwinds and separates dna into two strands

e: is the delayed strand, it is built  in the opposite sense of the helicase, so dna will be built in fragments ==> built  fragments from 5' to 3 joins

and finally f: is the enzyme that builds  the new dna strand (dna polymerase) ==>   adds nucleotides to make a new dna helix.
