Gynecomastia is an increase in the size of the mammary gland in men. The condition can occur in one or both breasts. It starts as a small mass under the nipple, which can be sensitive. One breast can be bigger than the other. Its cause is an imbalance between the stimulatory effects of estrogen (female sex hormones) and the inhibitory effects of androgens (male sex hormones) in the breast tissue, when the first ones increase, or the second ones descend.
Gynecomastia is a problem relatively common in the population, and there are three prevalence peaks throughout life:
Newborns: Between 60 and 90% of newborns have gynecomastia, produced by the passage of maternal estrogens through the placenta. It is a transient gynecomastia that disappears in about 2-3 weeks.
Puberty: Gynecomastia in puberty affects mainly young people aged between 10 and 14 years, and is due to the transient and physiological increase in estrogen that occurs at this age.
Elderly: Is due to an increase in fatty tissue with a greater peripheral aromatization ( a process that occurs in adipose tissue and that involves the conversion of androgens into estrogens), a decrease in the production of testosterone by the testes and the use of drugs.
This is all about dominant and recessive genes. According to the picture it looks like the yellow flowers have the dominant genes YY and the green flowers the recessive yy. You breeded the YY with the yy to get Yy. Now you have a plant with the dominant and recessive gene. The green flowers are recessive so if you breed 'y' with anything you get yellow flowers whether they only have the'Y' gene or the both 'Y' and 'y'.

Explanation:
Answer:
tertiary; quaternary
Explanation:
The orientation of all the atoms of a protein in three dimensions represents its tertiary structure. It includes the folding of the polypeptide chains in a way that brings are far apart amino acids of its secondary structure close together. Various segments of a polypeptide chain interact to form tertiary structures and these segments are held together by different kinds of weak interactions.
However, disulfide cross-links between the segments of polypeptide chains also stabilize the tertiary structure of some proteins. Likewise, disulfide bonds also hold the protein subunits of some proteins together and thereby, contribute to the quaternary structure. For example, two light chains of an antibody are joined together by disulfide bonds.
Answer: The answer is D - Beautiful leaves.
Explanation: Subjective data is gathered from the patient telling you something that you cannot use your five senses to measure. If a patient tells you they have had diarrhea for the past two days, that is subjective, you cannot know that information any other way besides being told that is what happened.
