Answer:

An organism's trait can be affected by sex and environment.

Explanation:

A trait or character may be defined as the feature of an individual organism. A trait can be a quantifiable measurement of a particular character of an organism.

Factors that can affect the organisms trait are as follows:

Sex: Sex can influence the trait of an organism. Some traits are present in single sex, these traits are known as sex limited traits (milk production). Sex influenced traits like male pattern baldness is controlled by autosomal alleles.

Environment: Environmental factors like light, temperature can also effect the organisms trait. For example: In case of Himalayan rabbit the allele responsible for the pigmentation is active only at the temperature below 30°C.

Gene flow or migration is the transfer of alleles or genes from one population to another. Select the combination of facts that
Montano1993 [528]

The correct answer to this question is B. Some members of the Fugate family had a genetic condition called methemoglobinemia, that gave a blue color to their skin. The gene causing this disease is an autosomal recessive gene, so to have this condition you need to be homozygotes for this recessive gene. Gene flow was prevalent in the Fugate family since not all of the children had blue complexion, but only four of them. The three children that did not have blue complexion, had the dominant allele, probably through gene migration from another population nearby. Also, since it is easier nowadays to travel, two separate populations could meet more easily. This increases the incidence of gene flow and explains the reduction of the occurrence of the condition.
