Answer:
Recessive lethal genes can code for either dominant or recessive traits, but they do not actually cause death unless an organism carries two copies of the lethal allele. Examples of human diseases caused by recessive lethal alleles include cystic fibrosis, sickle-cell anaemia, and achondroplasia.

The right answer is D.
The absorption of molecules at the level of the skin is carried out by passive diffusion for the molecules of low molecular weight (lower than 400 Da), the skin being covered with a lipoprotein film rich in water by its stratum corneum, rendering it little-permeable.
This absorption may be variable according to factors related to the skin such as stratum corneum's thickness, the state of hydration, the presence of cutaneous lesions or individual variations.
External factors may also modulate percutaneous absorption such as contact time, iontophoresis or the presence of specific adjuvants.
<span>A. Acquired traits can be passed to offspring
Jean-Baptiste Lamarck first presented his Theory of Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics in 1801. According to his theory, if an organism changes in order to adapt to its environment, the changes are passed on the organism's offspring. Some of his proposed ideas in the theory, however, were dismissed by other scientists by experimenting and studying of genetics.</span>
