The correct answer is D. The genes are coded to produce specific proteins, by the process of transcription and translation.
These proteins then, lead to the production of characteristic traits like eye color, hair color etc. 
So genes indirectly control the traits

jeyben [28]
I found the exercise on the internet and these were the options:
"A)Did this girl grow up in a single-parent mother-headed family?
B)Was this girl insecurely attached?
C)Did this girl have a stressful childhood?
D)<span>Does this girl have many siblings?"

Correct answer: D
The number of siblings is not a factor that promotes early puberty in girls. All the other factors do have an impact although the mechanisms are yet not very well known. When there is not a father figure present, girls tend to reach puberty earlier. When they are insecurely attached to their mother, girls also tend to reach puberty earlier. Lastly, another factor that may lead to an earlier puberty in girls is the stress they've passed through during childhood - mostly from family conflicts, whether with parents or siblings.</span>

Why does weight loss come slowly following rapid loss during the initial three weeks of a rigorous diet?
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

 The body will behave as if it's being starved and the metabolic rates decreases.

Explanation:

Experimental Studies showed that individuals who used starvation diets for weight loss, consuming 50% of their body energy needs for three weeks, did have a significant reduction in their body weight entirely. It is also interesting to note that, if they lower their lean muscle mass by 5% it will reduce their lean muscle mass and organ size by 20%.

This leads to metabolism, resulting in a decrease in rate of metabolism causing a breakage of certain muscle stores so as to generate energy. Starvation diets is proven to give a far-reaching negative impacts on the body as starving to lose weight causes a decreases in the metabolic rate.
