Answer:

D. a trait determined by a gene located on an individual's X or Y chromosome

Explanation:

Sex linked traits are the ones inherited from individual's sex chromosomes. Sex chromosomes i.e. X and Y chromosome not only have genes determining biological sex, but they also have genes coding for other important characteristics. The traits determined by sex chromosomes are known as sex linked traits, they can be either X linked or Y linked. A male has XY chromosome set and a female has XX set. So Y linked traits or the traits whose genes are present on Y chromosome are only passed from father to son. A X linked trait can be passed from both the parents to both the genders.

All parts of fungi are composed of ____________ , or thin filaments of cells, packed closely together to form the main body of a
MAVERICK [17]

The right answer is hyphae for the first gap, mycelium for the second gap.

The hyphae constitute the vegetative apparatus of the mushrooms, while the visible part, that which is improperly called mushroom, is in fact its reproductive apparatus.

Hyphae are less branched filaments consisting of a single cell that can be several centimeters long. They contain several nuclei and can sometimes be partitioned.

The mycelium is a part of the mushroom (composed by many hyphae), which is in the form of white filaments and grows about fifteen centimeters under the ground. It is this part of the mushroom that has therapeutic properties because the filaments of the mycelium are going to draw the minerals in the soil.
