What is a gene?

  • According to Mendel something was being stably passed down, unchanged, from parent to offspring through the gametes, over successive generations. He called these things as ‘factors’ now called as genes. Genes, therefore, are the units of inheritance.
  • They contain the information that is required to express a particular trait in an organism.
  • Genes which code for a pair of contrasting traits are known as alleles, i.e., they are slightly different forms of the same gene.
  • There is no ambiguity that the genes are located on the DNA, it is difficult to literally define a gene in terms of DNA sequence.
  • The DNA sequence coding for tRNA or rRNA molecule also defines a gene. A cistron is defined as a segment of DNA coding for a polypeptide, the structural gene in a transcription unit could be said as monocistronic (mostly in eukaryotes) or polycistronic (mostly in bacteria or prokaryotes).

Which of the following cells is formed by meiosis?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

B. A sperm cell

Explanation:

Meiosis creates gametes/sex cells, such as the sperm and egg.

So, sperm cells are formed by meiosis.

Meiosis doesn't create fertilized eggs, it instead creates normal egg cells.

Meiosis also doesn't create heart and bacterial cells because those are made in mitosis.

So, B is the correct answer.

The correct answer is option D. copper (Cu)

Malleability is the ability of metals to be hammered into sheets.

Metals are often required for different applications. The ability of metals to be hammered into sheets is called malleability.

Malleability of a metal is closely related to its density. The denser the metal, the less easily malleable it is.

Both copper and strontium are metals but copper is denser than strontium hence copper is less malleable than strontium.
