Answer:

Male or Son

Explanation:

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a disorder caused by RNA mutation. DMD occurs due to an inherent mutation, and it passes through a mother to her offspring. Thus, women are more likely to be carriers of the disease. If a woman has the defective gene and has a son,<u> the son has a 50 percent chance of developing the disease</u>. While a daughter would not develop the disease, she would have a 50 percent chance of being a carrier. Women have two copies of the gene affected by this disease, and men only have one copy of it. If there is an error in this gene, women have a backup copy. Men do not. This form of muscular dystrophy is found in 1 of 3,600 male infants. It generally causes death before the child reaches 25 years of age. As with cystic fibrosis, there is no known cure.

What happens if you don't sleep for 40days
Triss [41]

That is abnormal and would give you a horrendous amount of hallucinations, basically insomnia from situating from that problem and can also  put the higher chance into leaking towards paranoia. It will also lead into sleep deprivation, heart failure, high blood pressure, diabetes and potentially strokes that would consider damaging your health harshly.
