Baldness is a sex-limited trait.

Vedclass · Answer

(A) $1$. Baldness is a sex-influenced trait,not a sex-limited trait. Sex-influenced traits are expressed in both sexes but with different frequencies or intensities (e.g.,pattern baldness is more common in males). Sex-limited traits are expressed in only one sex.$2$. Linkage refers to the physical association of genes on the same chromosome,which prevents them from assorting independently,thus acting as an exception to Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment.$3$. Galactosemia is a genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of an enzyme (galactose$-1-$phosphate uridylyltransferase),making it an inborn error of metabolism.$4$. Genetic drift is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant in a population due to random sampling of organisms. It is more pronounced in small populations.
