Explanation / Answer

A heterozygous female may display features of a recessive trait from some of her cells - manifesting heterozygote because due to inactivation of X, the trait is expressed.

A male inherits a seemingly perfect gene from his father, but it is not expressed, yet the same gene from her mother is expressed - genomic imprinting because generally we inherit two copies of gene, one each from father and mother but in this only one working copy is inherited.

A male with heterozygous autosomal alleles, have big feet, while heterozygous women do not - Sex influenced trait because such traits are autosomal traits and are influenced by sex.

An autosomal gene that affects pregnancy length - X linked genes.

A female inherits a seemingly perfect gene from her father, but it is not expressed, yet the same gene from her mother is expressed - genomic imprinting as only one working copy of gene has been inherited from parents.
