Answer:
Men express all the X-linked genes present in their genome.
Explanation:
Human males have one copy of X and one copy of Y chromosomes. They express all the alleles present on their X chromosome irrespective of its dominant or recessive nature. This occurs because males do not have a second copy of the X chromosome to carry another allele for the same gene. Color blindness is caused by a recessive allele present on the X chromosome. Males carrying one copy of this allele exhibit the disease while females need two copies of the allele of color blindness to express the disease. Therefore, males are more frequently affected by this disease.

Asexual reproduction produces offspring with identical DNA to the parent and sexual offspring has a combination of DNA from two parents.
Either C or D. I think C, but I'm not too sure...
Answer:
The correct option is A. Steroid hormones exert their action by entering the nucleus of a cell and initiating or altering the expression of a gene.
Explanation:
Steroid hormones are derived from cholesterol and regulate multiple biological processes. All steroid hormones exert their action by crossing the plasma membrane and by binding with their respective intracellular receptors. They stimulate cell growth in a very different way, their lipophilic nature gives them the ability to cross lipid barriers, so, without the need for extracellular signals, these hormones can easily enter the cell, cross the cytoplasm and reach the nucleus. There they bind to specific receptors that are associated with DNA promoter regions, modifying their structure and promoting the expression of the genes under their control.
