Answer:

<em>The process of </em><u><em>exocytosis </em></u><em>could be responsible for its secretion. </em>

Explanation:

Exocytosis can be described as a process in which molecules are transported out of a cell in vesicles. The process of exocytosis usually requires energy as molecules are moved out of a cell by the method of active transport.

As certain cells that line the stomach secrete a protein and release it into the stomach we can infer that the process is exocytosis. Peptides, hormones and various antibodies are also transported to different locations through the process of exocytosis.

Are gender traits completely a result of societal expectations?

No. Gender traits in humans are largely determined by biophysical processes. There seems to be a vocal political faction that is trying to convince people in the name of liberty and equality that gender traits are completely learned, and therefore arbitrary.

But this claim disagrees with scientific evidence. In general, boys play more with cars and girls play more with dolls not because their parents are perpetuating outdated gender stereotypes, but because their brain is telling them to.

This fact does not mean that boys have to play with boy toys, or that boys who play with dolls aren't really boys. It is just a scientific observation about average behavior and its link to fetal development

What do you call a trait caused by a gene located on the X chromosome?
Morgarella [4.7K]
