Answer:

b. on the X chromosome  

Explanation:

Sex-linked genes refer to genes located on sex chromosomes that are involved in determining traits. In humans, the male sex chromosome Y has few sex-linked genes. Already, the female sex chromosome X has a large amount of genes involved in determining various gender-related characteristics, so it has become usual to determine that the genes described as sex-linked are located on the x-chromosome.

What is global cuisine and what does it have to do with cultural globalization?
lawyer [7]
Gradually, came sushi and karate from Japan, and delicatessens from Italy and Germany, and 18 speed bikes from several European countries. Chinese food cooked and served by Chinese Canadians, not all of it authentic Cantonese or Szechuan or whatever, got steadily more popular as I grew up. And pizza. And espresso coffee. And holopchi from Ukraine and pyrogies from Poland. French perfumes. Mexican leather goods. Smorgasbords. All of these were virtually unknown to me when I was in grade 1, but were common by the time I was in university. I could go on and on. Other countries are going through similar experiences, some more slowly that Canada has, some actually a bit faster.

Then there are the subtler things, the ways of thinking and living. Yoga, tai-chi, zen, existentialism, deconstructionism, post-modernism, Marxism, supply side economics and on and on.

This world is a globalized one now, and it has been getting gradually more and more so for a long time. There is no going back. We learn to live together on Starship Earth or we exterminate ourselves.

What are the causes of skin cancer and why are Caucasians more at risk of skin cancer than other populations
atroni [7]

-Ultraviolet (UV) exposure – The sun is the most well-known source of UV radiation, but UV rays also come from tanning beds and other artificial sources.

-Genetics – Some risk factors of skin cancer can be inherited through our DNA.

-Immunosuppression – Some conditions, like AIDS, and certain medications, such as those provided after organ transplants, can suppress the body’s immune system and might contribute to the development of skin cancer.

-Radiation exposure – In addition to UV, there are other forms of radiation that may adversely affect the skin cells, such as X-rays or therapeutic radiation.

-Toxic sunscreens -- Most sunscreens block the absorption of Vitamin D with toxic chemicals that seep through the skin and into the bloodstream and all throughout your body. Using these toxic sunscreens could actually cause cancer. Some toxic ingredients that are in these kinds of sunscreens: oxybenzone. benzene, parabens, homosalate, octinoxate, and octocrylene

Caucasians are more at risk for skin cancer because they have less melanin produced in their skin. Lighter skin tones produce less melanin and are more prone to damaged DNA particulate from UV radiation.
