Answer: 1, 3
Explanation: 1. There are four perspectives on sex or gender: anatomical, chromosomal, hormonal, and psychological. In the hormonal perspective, one's sex is defined by the balance of male and female hormones. The anatomical perspective relies on sex-specific internal and external organs such as a penis. The chromosomal perspective is based on the number of X and Y chromosomes one possesses. The final perspective involves one's felt identity or gender identity. Behavioral is not a perspective on sex or gender.
