Answer:

Genetic code

Explanation:

Genetic code refers to the set of rules by which the information encoded in the genetic material is translated into the proteins. The genetic code is present on the genes in the form of triplets of nucleotides  called codons which specifies the specific amino acid.

The codon system of the genetic code rules allows the 4 different nucleotides to form specific amino acids by the combination of the four different nucleotide in the triplets.

Thus, Genetic code is the correct answer.

brilliants [131]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B.

Explanation:

The patellar tendon reflex is the kicking movement of the lower leg in response to the tap on patellar cap used to test the L2, L3, and L4 segments of the spinal cord in the body.

The spinal cord interacts with muscles through muscle sensors called muscle spindle which signals after the stretching of the muscle. The signals are sent to the spinal cord through afferent neurons or sensory neurons which starts the reflex action to prevent overstretching of the muscle.
