Question
question 10 which of these is passed on directly from mother to all of her offspring? mrna plasmid dna the genes from the y chromosome mitochondrial dna
Brief Explanations
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is passed from mother to all offspring. Egg cells contain mitochondria, and sperm contribute little to no mitochondria to the zygote. mRNA is short - lived and not passed on as genetic material. Plasmid DNA is typically found in bacteria. Females do not have a Y chromosome (males have XY, females have XX), so the Y chromosome genes are not from the mother.
