Male patterned baldness is an x-linked or sex linked disorder/trait which is why it is more common in males than females.

Answer:

mark brainliest :))

Explanation:

Because baldness is a sex-linked trait.  

In other words, men are simply more likely to express the trait for baldness than women are, because they only need one set of genes for baldness, while women need two.  

If, for example, for each gene there is a 1/2 chance that the gene will be for baldness and 1/2 that it will not, then men have a 1/2 chance (because 1/2^1 = 1/2) of being bald, while women have a 1/4 chance (because 1/2^2 = 1/4) of being bald.  

This is the reason it's called "male-pattern baldness": it is more common in males. However, this does not explain nor rule out the dearth of women with baldness-women can get it too: it's just less common

valkas [14]

Addiction is a condition of compulsive drug seeking and use, even with negative consequences is a <u>true</u> statement.

Explanation:

Addiction to drugs is a chronic and a relapsing condition or disorder which results in compulsory drug seeking behavior and its continuous use despite knowing about or having negative consequences it can cause to the brain and the body systems.

This is both a medical and a mental illness due to repeatedly misusing drugs or other substances and a severe form of a spectrum of substance abuse disorders.

In what zone is the ability to burrow and sustain changes in temperature and salinity important for an organisms' survival?
den301095 [7]
The correct option is C.
Living organisms that live in the littoral zones in the ocean are used to frequent changes in temperature and in the salinity of the ocean water. For an organism to survive in this environment, it needs to have adaptive features that will increase its survival. The littoral zone is divided into three zones, which are high, middle and lower littoral zones. Organisms living in high littoral zone have adaptive features that make them more adapted to desiccation due to the long hours of sunlight to which they are exposed. The organisms are usually exposed directly to the air or they can be enclosed in burrows.
