Answer;

C. His mother carried at least one allele for that trait

Explanation;

-Men have a single allele of each gene on the X chromosome, inherited from their mother, and a single allele of each gene on the Y chromosome, from their father.

-A sex-linked trait is a trait that is controlled by a gene or an allele located on the sex chromosome.

-X-linked traits are maternally inherited from carrier mothers or from an affected father. Each son born to a carrier mother has a 50% probability of inheriting the X-chromosome carrying the mutant allele.

  5. <em><u>Bronchioles: </u></em>The bronchi develop smaller the closer they get to the lung tissue and are then consider bronchioles.
  6. <em><u>Alveoli:</u></em> They are tiny air sacs located at the end of the bronchioles, which is the site of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in the respiratory system.
