Answer:

X-linked recessive inheritance

Explanation:

Since the disease is primarily present in males vs females, it is a s.ex linked disease.

In X-linked recessive inheritance, males tend to get disease b/c they only have one x (the other is y) which means if they get the bad "x" copy from mom then they definetely will get the disease.

Females can be carriers b/c they are XX. If they get a good copy from mom and suppose a bad copy from dad, they can still be healthy b/c the good copy is dominant. They will be carriers (cuz they have the bad copy) but themselves wont have the disease.

When selecting among multiple possible phylogenetic trees that fit our data, we commonly use the principle of _____, which means
nordsb [41]

a. parsimony; simplest; fewest

When selecting among multiple possible phylogenetic trees that fit our data, we commonly use the principle of <u>parsimony</u>, which means we choose the <u>simplest</u> possible hypothesis. In phylogenetic analysis, that means selecting the tree that represents the <u>fewest</u> evolutionary changes or mutations.

Explanation:

Phylogeny describes the evolutionary history of on organism or group of organisms.  

A phylogenetic tree structure is used to describe the relationship between various organisms which have originated from common ancestors.  

The Principle of Parsimony is best applied while constructing phylogenetic tree.  

This principle emphasizes on simple observations on a phylogeny which requires only few changes or variations which explain for the difference between the phylogenic sequences.  

This tree structure will only have few specific genetic variations or mutations or evolutionary changes which took place through new appearance of a trait or disappearance of an existing trait.

Which type of macromolecule makes up the capsid of a virus
Elenna [48]

Protein

Proteins are the most versatile macromolecules in living systems and they play important roles in essentially all biological processes. Protein makes up the capsid of a virus. The infective extracellular form of a virus known as a virion contains at least one unique protein synthesized by specific genes in the nucleic acid of that virus. In almost all viruses, at least one of these proteins forms a shell (called a capsid) around the nucleic acid. Certain viruses also have other proteins internal to the capsid. Some of these proteins act as enzymes during the synthesis of viral nucleic acids.
