Answer:

B

Explanation:

Atoms of oxygen are electronegative and attract the shared electrons in their covalent bonds. Consequently the electrons in the water molecule spend slightly more time around the oxygen atomic center and less time around the hydrogen atomic centers. The covalent bonds are therefore polar, and the oxygen atoms have a slight negative charge

Weight is a quantitative trait and mice with defective leptin tend to have problems controlling weight since this gene is associated with it.

<h3>What is a quantitative trait?</h3>

A quantitative trait is a phenotypic feature controlled by many genes and the interaction with the environmental factors.

Weight, height, behavioral features are all examples of quantitative traits because these types of phenotypic features show continuous variation.

Quantitative traits are modulated by gene interactions and therefore exhibit both epistatic and pleiotropic effects.

The leptin gene is a gene in mammal involved in neuronal control to metabolic signals and thereby it is associated with weight.

In conclusion, weight is a quantitative trait and mice with a defective form of the leptin gene tend to have problems controlling weight because it is associated with this trait.
