Answer:

As a transcription factor

Explanation:

Testosterone is a male sex hormone secreted by the testicles which promote the growth of the male reproductive organs and the male characters like muscle buildup.

The hormone shows the paracrine effect and thus act on the target cell at distant. The mechanism of action of the testosterone is that it controls the gene expression of various other genes.

The testosterone binds the specific proteins which activate the expression of the gene that is they acts as a transcription factor which activates the expression.  

Thus, as a transcription factor is correct.

In the universal ABO blood grouping system, there are four phenotypes—A, B, AB, and O—which are determined by three different al
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - autosomal codominant inheritance (due to multiple alleles).

Explanation:

Autosomal codominant inheritance or codominance is a pattern of inheritance where the alleles present of an autosomal gene express their character in the phenotype. In other words, in this type of pattern, no allele would be masked by other alleles and both will be expressed in the phenotype.

The human ABO blood group is an example of this pattern as there are three alleles A, B, and O. In the heterozygous case of AB blood group both A, and B alleles expressed together however, O is masked by both alleles A, and O.
