Answer:
"U"-shaped, with peaks at the low and high extremes of beak size; disruptive selection
Answer:
X-linked recessive
Explanation:
The trait is a sex-linked trait because the daughters are not colorblind, but the sons are. We know this its recessive because the daughters have inherited the mother's X chromosome that has the colourblindness trait, but are not colorblind because the father's X does not have the colourblindness trait. The sons are colourblind because they inherited the X from their mother with the colourblindnese trait and a Y from their father. The colourblindness trait or normal vision trait is not carried on the Y, so the mother's X chromosome's trait is expressed.
Sorry if it's confusing i tried my best to explain it
Answer:
They act to regulate the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive)
Explanation:
Testosterone is a reproductive hormone in male humans. Testosterone as well as its closely related hormones e.g dihydrotestosterone, all belong to a class of hormones called "Androgens".
Androgens operate by entering into a cell and binds with specific androgen-receptor proteins (AR proteins). This contact activates the AR proteins, forming an androgen-receptor complex.
This complex then translocates into the nucleus of specific cells to bind to the DNA. Once it binds, it either inhibits or promotes the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive). Hence, AR proteins are transcription factors because they play a significant role in regulating transcription of specific genes i.e. turning 'on' or 'off' of specific genes.
This process helps to direct the development of male sexual characteristics.
HIV is the only disease listed here to be sexually transmitted.

Hey there!
Here is a paraphrased version of the text:
Objects that are nonliving never had the qualities of life, and never will. Things that are dead did have an experience to have the qualities of life, but then they eventually die, they fail to keep some of the characteristics. So in science, dead is not an identical word to nonliving. A rock is nonliving, a fallen tree is dead, and a moose is living.
Note: While paraphrasing a text, a good thing to do is to think of as many synonyms of the words in the text as you can.
Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!
