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.

Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing hormone (LH) are Gonadotropins stimulated in the gonads. In females, they are located in the ovaries. They are not needed for life yet important for reproduction. Progesterone which is being secreted in corpus luteum is needed for maintenance of pregnancy thus if a female has a low FSH and LH it will affect the chance of her be pregnant.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The protein is known as Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) that is present in inner mitochondrial membrane of brown adipose cells of mammals and other organisms undergoing hibernation.

Function:

  • The protein allows the organisms to produce metabolic heat that helps in the organism’s regulation of body temperature.
  • This protein can also serve as a source of carbon for the production of carbohydrates when organism faces the period of prolonged fasting and thus help the organism to survive.
  • The protein also helps in the movement of protons into the mitochondrial matrix that ultimately activate the electron transport chain and releases more and more heat for body’s maintenance.

Hope it helps!
