Distilled water tends to be acidic and can only be recommended as a way of drawing poisons out of the body. Once this is accomplished, the continued drinking of distilled water is a bad idea. Water filtered through reverse osmosis tends to be neutral and is acceptable for regular use provided minerals are supplemented.
Genetically speaking, the gender of a baby is determined by the presence of the 'Y' chromosome (or the absence of it). If a Punnett square were to be drawn and a mono-hybrid â¦ cross carried out, you can see that the only chromosome the female (XX) can pass on is the X chromosome.
Of the 23 pairs of chromosomes, the first 22 pairs are called autosomes. The final pair is called the sex chromosomes. Sex chromosomes determine an individual's sex: females have two X chromosomes (XX), and males have an X and a Y chromosome (XY). The mother and father each contribute one set of 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome. Top of page
