7) Why aren't Turners females who have one X chromosome phenotypically normal given that males only have one X and are normal and all female mammals inactivate one of their 2 X chromosomes leaving with one X just like Turners females and these females are also normal, but Turner's females are not normal (have abnormal ovaries). Why? 8.Sex Determination A .Compare sex determination in humans (what genetically and biochemically determines male vs female) and compare this to sex determination in Drosophila fruit flies what genetically and biochemically determines male vs female in fruit flies).

9.In goats, the gene for coat color is on an autosome and light brown color is dominant to black. A light brown male is mated to a black female, producing a black kid (baby goat). If they produce another kid, could it be light brown? If so, what are the chances of it being light brown? yes, 100% since the first kid was black the next one has to be light brown yes, 50% as the male must be heterozygous for color yes, 75% since light brown is dominant yes, but it will depend on whether the kid is male or female
