although in highrt chordates it is seen only in the embryo and as a vestigial organ.
-a flexible material made out of similar material to cartilage. If a species has notochord it is by definition
it is a chordate. Ex: fish, birds, mammals

mitochondrial matrix. the proton gradient is used to make ATP.

cell) there is a total of 46 chromosomes in each cell or a set of 23.
regular cells - ANS 2n, or diploid a set of 23 chromosomes or 46 chromosomes
sexual reproduction simplified - ANS a sperm which is haploid (n) with 23 chromosomes combines with
an egg which is also haploid (n) with 23 chromosomes to form a zygote (2n) which creates 46
chromosomes or diploid then it forms an embryo which turns into a fetus.
autosomes - ANS In a diploid or 2n human cell there are 46 chromosomes. 2 sex cells (one from mom,
one from dad) join with 44 autosomes (23 from mom 23 from dad). Mom and dad have identical cells

determinants of the zygotes gender (the sex cells do this).
Mom has 22 autosomes, and dad has 22 that each will donate.
In addition to the 22 chromsomes that mom and dad will both donate, 1 more chromosome has to be
added to make 23 chromosomes in total This is the sex chromsome which determines the sex of the
baby. These sex cells are not identical like autosomes because there is either an X chromsome or a Y
chromsome that can be donated. Mom can donate only an X chromosome. Dad can donate either an X
or a Y chromosome.
sporophytes and how they reproduce simplified - ANS sporophyte is just another name for a plant. some
sporophytes produce oversized ovaries which presents itself as a fruit. There is a remains of a flower on
