No. Gender traits in humans are largely determined by biophysical processes. There seems to be a vocal political faction that is trying to convince people in the name of liberty and equality that gender traits are completely learned, and therefore arbitrary.

But this claim disagrees with scientific evidence. In general, boys play more with cars and girls play more with dolls not because their parents are perpetuating outdated gender stereotypes, but because their brain is telling them to.

This fact does not mean that boys have to play with boy toys, or that boys who play with dolls aren't really boys. It is just a scientific observation about average behavior and its link to fetal development

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is- C. double or single-stranded DNA or double or single-stranded RNA.

Explanation:

All the viruses are intracellular parasites which means they obtain their nutrition from their host. Viruses do not have cellular level of organization. They only have their nucleic acid which is surrounded by a protein coat called a capsid.

The nucleic acid in viruses can be of different types. It can be single or double-stranded DNA or single or double-stranded RNA. Their genome can be linear or circular. They inject their genetic material in their host and introduce it in the host genome. Therefore the correct answer is C.
