Answer:

C. Cholesterol

Explanation:

Cholesterol maintains the fluidity of the cell membrane and thereby, regulates its function.

Bile acids are derived from cholesterol which serves as their precursor. For example, Taurocholic acid is a polar derivative of cholesterol. Bile acids serve in the absorption of fatty acids, glycerol, and fat-soluble vitamins as these compounds are non-polar in nature.  

Vitamin D is produced when the derivative of cholesterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol undergoes photolysis in skin cells in presence of sunlight.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The mentioned characteristics of variability are witnessed because of the phenomenon known as X chromosome inactivation in heterozygous females. As females possess two X chromosomes, they actually should not possess any color blindness.  

The phenomenon of X-chromosome inactivation takes place in a random manner at the time of embryo development. During this only one X chromosome is inactivated. If the chromosome comprising the defective gene is inactivated, the individual will possess normal vision.  

If the chromosome comprising the usual gene gets inactivated than the individual will be color blind. In the given case of female, X inactivation took place in one eye. The inactivation of normal alleles has taken place and thus she possesses normal vision with one eye and is color blind in the other eye.
