Vedclass · Answer

(C) The correct answer is $C$. Baldness (specifically androgenetic alopecia) is a sex-influenced trait,not a sex-linked trait. Sex-influenced traits are autosomal traits whose expression is influenced by the sex of the individual (e.g.,presence of hormones like testosterone). In contrast,sex-linked traits are determined by genes located on the sex chromosomes ($X$ or $Y$). Galactosemia is indeed an inborn error of metabolism caused by the deficiency of the enzyme galactose-$1$-phosphate uridylyltransferase. Genetic drift refers to random fluctuations in allele frequencies in small populations. Linkage occurs when genes are located close together on the same chromosome,which violates Mendel's law of independent assortment.
