How are human mitochondria inherited? see concept 15.5 (page 311) view available hint(s) how are human mitochondria inherited? see concept 15.5 (page 311) as an x-linked trait without dna from the father only as linear dna from the mother only

from the mother only

Explanation:

Maternal inheritance is exhibited by certain organelles such as chloroplasts and mitochondria. Mitochondria are the cytoplasmic organelles present in the eukaryotic cells. Mitochondria exhibit maternal inheritance in humans which means that the egg cells contribute the mitochondria to the zygote. The male gametes, sperms do not contribute mitochondria to the zygote. Therefore, any mutation in the mitochondrial DNA of the egg cell is transmitted to the progeny but the mitochondrial genome of sperms and any mutations in it are not carried to the progeny.

answer; /// i do believe its (heredity); good luck

the diploid number of chromosomes is sometimes represented by the symbol 2n. for the fruit fly, the diploid number is 8, which can be written as 2n = 8, where n represents twice the number of chromosomes in a sperm or egg cell.
