No genes are shared between the avian ZW and mammal XY chromosomes [26] and the chicken Z chromosome is similar to the human autosomal chromosome 9, rather than X or Y. This suggests not that the ZW and XY sex-determination systems share an origin but that the sex chromosomes are derived from autosomal chromosomes of the common ancestor of ...
The voiced labial–velar approximant is a type of consonantal sound, used in certain spoken languages, including English.It is the sound denoted by the letter w in the English alphabet; [1] likewise, the symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is w , or rarely [ɰʷ], and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is w.
The ZW sex-determination system is a chromosomal system that determines the sex of offspring in birds, some fish and crustaceans such as the giant river prawn, some insects (including butterflies and moths), the schistosome family of flatworms, and some reptiles, e.g. majority of snakes, lacertid lizards and monitors, including Komodo dragons.

However, in precise notation there is a difference between a fricative release in [tᶴ] and the affricate [t͜ʃ], between a velar onset in [ᵏp] and doubly articulated [k͜p]. [101] Superscript letters can be meaningfully modified by combining diacritics, just as baseline letters can.
With a 30% difference between humans and chimpanzees, the Y chromosome is one of the fastest-evolving parts of the human genome. [27] However, these changes have been limited to non-coding sequences and comparisons of the human and chimpanzee Y chromosomes (first published in 2005) show that the human Y chromosome has not lost any genes since ...
