Answer:
Cell–cell interaction
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described it can be said that the developmental process that has most likely been affected are known as Cell–cell interaction. These are the direct interactions that exist between cell surfaces that allow them to communicate with one another. Doing so by receiving signals and initiating transduction pathways. Therefore since these are functions that have been disrupted it's safe to say that the Cell-cell interaction has been affected.
In homo sapiens(humans), males are the heterogametic sex meaning their sex chromosomes are not the same(=XY) while females are homogametic(=XX).
Sex linked traits or x linked traits are traits whose genes are present on the X chromosome. So if there is a recessive mutation in those genes, males will express that recessive trait. Basically males express everything that’s on their X chromosome because they only have 1, but females have 2 which helps “hide” the mutation and to not express the particular recessive trait.
That is why sex linked traits are more evident in males in the population and an example of that would be colorblindness.

A. Most people thought that trillium was not getting enough sunlight in the forest.
Explanation – Scientists used to believe that the population of trillium decreased because there were not enough sunlight to reach these plants. Later, it was found that deer used to eat the flowers of trillium plant that led to the decrease of its population.
The seed of the trillium plant is very nutritious and hence consumed by the deer. Because of this, trilliums were found to be unlikely to recolonize local areas on their own.
C. Both processes involve energy-carrier molecules.
