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

A molecule that moves across a cell membrane without using the cell’s energy tends to move A. away from the area of equilibrium.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

C. away from the area where it is more concentrated.

Explanation:

If a molecule is moving across a cell membrane w/o using the cell's energy, it is diffusion, which is defined as the movement of a substance from higher to lower concentration. Diffusion <em>never </em>requires energy, whether it is facilitated or not, as clustered molecules and/or atoms simply want to get the heck away from each other if in too high concentration in a single place. The type of molecular movement across a cell membrane that would require the cell's energy would be active transport, which often requires ATP or GTP and works against a concentration gradient.

Cheers.
