Rainforest cover only 2 % of the total surface area of the Earth but in spite of that about 50 % of plants and animals that live on the Earth live there.

By definition rainforests are forests that recieve high amounts of rainfall so you can actually find rainforests in Alaska for example (other examples: Canada, Asia, Africa, Latin and South-America)

About 1/4 of natural medicines are found in rainforests. 70 % or more of the plants that are used to treat cancer are found only in tropical rainforest on the planet.

Trees in tropical rainforests are so dense that it takes approximately 10 min for the rainfall to reach the ground from canopy.

What is the correct sentence?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer: The correct sequence in the expression of a trait is gene > protein > trait (Option B).

Explanation:

During gene transcription, a linear fragment of DNA referred to as a 'gene' is used as template to synthesize a complementary messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence.

Subsequently, this mRNA is then used as template to create a protein by a process called translation.

Moreover, phenotypic traits can be defined as all observable characteristics that an organism has.

The phenotypic traits are largely determined by the expression of either enzymatic or structural proteins, which interact to shape the phenotype of an organism.

In conclusion, the correct sequence in the expression of a trait is gene > protein > trait (Option B).
