The answer is C

Environmental DNA (eDNA) surveillance

Environmental DNA (eDNA) refers to DNA that can be extracted from environmental samples, such as water, soil or faeces, without first isolating any target organisms. It can also result from the decomposition of dead organisms. All living organisms, regardless of their size or ecology, leave traces of DNA in their environments, reflecting their current or past presence. eDNA is characterized by a complex mixture of nuclear, mitochondrial or chloroplast DNA, and can be intracellular (from living cells) or extracellular. It enables the detection of a species regardless of its life stage or gender. This technology has the potential to eliminate the need to capture or visually detect a target species, making it a particularly attractive alternative as a stand-alone assay for organisms that are hard to capture, difficult to collect, or that have small populations.

Which of the following statements about genes is incorrect? a. During fertilization, both the sperm and the ovum contribute gene
Illusion [34]

Answer:

d. Under normal circumstances, each chromosome contains precisely one gene.

Explanation:

The gene is a segment of a DNA molecule, responsible for genetically inherited traits. Each gene consists of a specific DNA sequence that contains a code (instructions) to produce a protein that performs a specific function in the body. Each human cell has about 25,000 genes.

The genes are located within the chromosomes. A chromosome can house thousands of genes, it is not normal for a chromosome to house a gene or a few units. Thus, if a cell contains 46 chromosomes, that cell has an incalculable number of genes.
