Vedclass · Answer

(D) Male pattern baldness is a classic example of a sex-influenced trait.It is controlled by an autosomal gene,meaning it is located on an autosome,not a sex chromosome.However,the expression of this gene is influenced by the presence of sex hormones,specifically androgens.In males,the trait acts as dominant,while in females,it acts as recessive,which is why it is classified as a sex-influenced trait.Therefore,it is both an autosomal trait and a sex-influenced trait.
