QUÉ SIGNIFICA SEX EN INGLÉS

Sexo

Sex

Los organismos de muchas especies se especializan en variedades masculinas y femeninas, cada una conocida como sexo. La reproducción sexual implica la combinación y la mezcla de rasgos genéticos: las células especializadas conocidas como gametes se combinan para formar la descendencia que hereda rasgos de cada padre. Los gametos pueden ser idénticos en forma y función, pero en muchos casos una asimetría ha evolucionado de tal manera que existen dos tipos de gametos específicos del sexo. Por definición, los gametos masculinos son pequeños, móviles y optimizados para transportar su información genética a una distancia, mientras que los gametos femeninos son grandes, no móviles y contienen los nutrientes necesarios para el desarrollo temprano del organismo joven. Entre los seres humanos y otros mamíferos, los varones suelen llevar cromosomas XY, mientras que las mujeres suelen llevar cromosomas XX, que son una parte del sistema de determinación de sexo XY. Los gametos producidos por un organismo determinan su sexo: los machos producen gametos masculinos mientras que las hembras producen gametos femeninos; Los organismos individuales que producen tanto gametos masculinos como femeninos se denominan hermafroditas.

Organisms of many species are specialized into male and female varieties, each known as a sex. Sexual reproduction involves the combining and mixing of genetic traits: specialized cells known as gametes combine to form offspring that inherit traits from each parent. Gametes can be identical in form and function, but in many cases an asymmetry has evolved such that two sex-specific types of gametes exist. By definition, male gametes are small, motile, and optimized to transport their genetic information over a distance, while female gametes are large, non-motile and contain the nutrients necessary for the early development of the young organism. Among humans and other mammals, males typically carry XY chromosomes, whereas females typically carry XX chromosomes, which are a part of the XY sex-determination system. The gametes produced by an organism determine its sex: males produce male gametes while females produce female gametes; individual organisms which produce both male and female gametes are termed hermaphroditic.
