... Genes that are on these chromosomes are called “sex-linked” genes. Each male carries an X and a Y chromosome. Each female carries two X chromosomes. If a disease or abnormality occurs on the X chromosome, it will always be expressed in the male because they have only one X. It may not be expressed i ...

The Two Percent Difference
... It is important before discussing bioethics to understand what the two percent difference is between humans and chimpanzees. “Humans and chimps each have somewhere between 20,000 and 30,000 genes,” (Sapolsky, 2007, p. 45) thus it is likely to have differences in each gene. Sapolsky gives the interes ...
