The guevedoces are phenotypic girls who turn into phenotypic boys/young men at puberty. fortunately, the children in the dominican republic who have this unusual condition are socially accepted; by some accounts, they have a special status. they are genetically xy, and they have testes capable of producing testosterone. how do you explain this phenomenon? ( select all correct answers.)a) the sry gene product is not expressed during fetal life. b) there may be a mutation in the gene for 5α-reductase, so the guevedoces cannot produce dht. c) the guevedoces release a defective form of testosterone. d) the guevedoces do not have testes until they reach puberty. e) there is a mutation in the gene for androgen receptors, so they never respond to androgens. f) testosterone, in concentrations produced during fetal life, is not abundant enough and/or powerful enough to masculinize external genitalia. g) during puberty, testosterone levels increase sufficiently to produce a p*nis and scrotum.

Based on the observation that only male crickets produce a song, you hypothesize that a male's song is a form of communication to potential mates. you set up a simple experiment to test this hypothesis. in the laboratory, you place a male snowy tree cricket in enclosure a, which is adjacent to enclosureb. in enclosure b, you place other insects, one at a time, and observe their responses to the male's song. the enclosures are designed so that the two insects being tested cannot see or smell each other, but sound is transmitted from enclosure a to enclosureb.
