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).

The groundwater is being discharged faster than it is being recharged is the data suggested.

Option D

<h3><u>Ex planation:</u></h3>

Ground water level is the level of underground storage of water above the impermeable rock layer. The underground water is getting filtered through different layers of permeable rocks before it enters the final layer. So it’s fresh and ready to be consumed as it is taken out. Thus for centuries, it’s being used as the source of drinking water.

But with increasing population, the ground water is being consumed at the rate very faster than it can be refilled from different sources like precipitation, rivers and other water bodies. So its level tends to get lower and lower as this continues until the point it gets finished.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The correct labels of the three planes are -

a. axial or transverse plane.

b. sagittal plane

c.. coronal plane

Explanation:

The human body can be divided into three planes on the basis of anatomy - the sagittal plane, the coronal plane, and the transverse plane

A sagittal plane is a longitudinal plane that divides the human body in the left and right parts.

A coronal plane is an anatomical plane that divides the body vertically into the back and front, ventral or dorsal (to be more specific).

An Axial or transverse plane, it is the plane that divides in the upper part of the body and lower part of the body.

Thus, the correct answer is -

a. axial or transverse plane.

b. sagittal plane

c. coronal plane
