The question is the following :
<span>What is the best evidence to prove that Irene was heterozygous for hemophilia?
A) Alice carried the recessive allele.
B) Alexandra carried the recessive allele.
C) Frederick carried the recessive allele.
D) Waldemar carried the recessive allele.


The correct answer is A

In the pedigree, marked with blue are the carriers of the X recessive allele ( they have one X that has the mutation and the other that doesn't).
Alice was Irene's' mother, and since both Alice and iIrene have the allele, it is safe to conclude that Irene inherited the recessive allele from Alice.</span>

const2013 [10]

Answer:

the fundamental unit of heredity

Explanation:

DNA is a double stranded helix structure. Each strand is made up of a string of nucleotides.

A gene is a region of DNA, usually tens of thousands of nucleotides long. At the simplest level, one gene encodes for one trait. Therefore, the gene can be described as the fundamental unit of heredity.

Genes work by coding for specific proteins, which carry out essentially all the functions in the cell.
