That would be C.

Endocrine secretion is when a molecule(usually a hormone) is secreted into the blood. Endo as “in” the blood. Exo as “out” of the blood. You can think of it that way if it helps:)

5. It is difficult to diagnose genetic conditions because they are rarely seen and once problems start presenting themselves not only would a diagnosis need to be made. But to prove it you would have to take blood from both parents to see why they together could produce genetic conditions.
6) Down syndrome occurs when you get a smaller number of chromosomes you are supposed to inherit from each parent during conception.
7) a silent mutation is a change in DNA but does not changes the encoded and has no phenotypic effect therefore the genetic sequence is not changed

The genes for sex-linked traits are carried on either the X or Y chromosome. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a recessive, s
morpeh [17]
There is a 50% probability that the child will be a boy. If this is the case, he will inherit the X chromosome from his mother and the Y chromosome from his father. Since the woman has DMD, the boy will certainly inherit the disease, since he only has one X chromosome and it carries the disease. We know that both of the mother's X chromosomes carry the disease because since it is recessive, both of her chromosomes must have it in order for her to have it. 

There is also a 50% probability that the child is girl. If this is the case, she will inherit a normal X chromosome from her father and the disease-carrying X chromosome from her mother. Since the disease is recessive, she will not be affected by the disease, since she has one healthy X chromosome and one disease-carrying one. 

If the child is a girl, there is a 0% chance that she will have the disease (although she will be a carrier). 

If the child is a boy, there is a 100% chance that he will inherit the disease. 

The answer is D)
