P450scc or cholesterol side chain cleavage enzyme is an enzyme that converts cholesterol into pregnenolone (the precursor for steroids). The kinds of steroid hormones are mineralocorticoids (i.e. aldosterone) glucocorticoids (i.e. cortisol), and sex steroids (i.e. testosterone, estrogen). In the event where P450scc is blocked, then there will be no production of mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, and sex steroids. There will be no production of aldosterone, cortisol, estradiol, testosterone, and progesterone. This disease is called Lipoid Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
I honestly think it is D. Impulses.

Answer:
Principle of cross-cutting relationships
Explanation:
The geologic principle that will provide the most profound explanation to this problem is the principle of cross-cutting relationships.
It states that "features that cross-cuts rocks are younger than the layer they cut through".
Some of these features are intrusions, faults and joints.
The logic behind this reasoning is that without the rock in place, the cross-cutting event wouldn't have been recorded.
We can liken this to a fracture on the wall of a building. If the wall is not erected, there wouldn't be any fracture. Therefore, the fracture is far younger than the wall.
The correct answer is: marsupials.
Marsupials are actually defined by their ability to hold the young in the pouches, where they can be well protected. Some examples are Kangaroos and Koalas.
Other answers are wrong: for example, gymnosperms are plants, not animals.
