Answer:

b. complementary proteins

Explanation:

Complementary proteins are proteins that contain all adequate amounts of the essential amino acids when two or more protein sources that are deficient or low in some amino acids are combined together to compensate for the deficiency of the other. The protein sources can be eaten together in a meal or consumed the same day to get a complete protein.

For example, grains are deficient in lysine, while legumes are usually deficient in methionine.  Combination of rice which is a grain, together with beans which is a legume, would give us complementary protein diet, making it a complete protein source with all adequate essential amino acids available.

Why do X-linked traits appear more often in males
Tpy6a [65]
X - linked traits appear more often in males because males only have one x chromosome. One copy of an x - linked trait is all that a male would need to possess that trait. Females have two x chromosomes, so they would require 2 copies of the x - linked trait in order to possess it.

Leto [7]
No idea about the scientific reasoning, but the leaves of the plant are where the most photosynthesizing has to happen. In order for the plant to get energy it has to absorb the most light. So it creates broad leaves. The reason they are green is because chloroplasts are green. I believe that the cells in the leaves have more chloroplasts so that they can catch more sunlight.<span />
