<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is, " the exact location of a particular disease-causing gene can be determined".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • <u>Premature genetic testing is the method to identify the different genetic anomalies in the baby before birth by testing the amniotic fluid.</u>
  • First, the fluid is taken and embryonic cells are separated from the fluid and then genome, DNA is separated.
  • Then the genome of the baby is compared with the discovered human genome.
  • The defected gene is then identified with its location in the genome.
  • Hence in genetic testing discovered human genome is used to identify the location of the defected gene.

Dahasolnce [82]
I believe in both groups , the sperm swim from antheridia to aronia. Both are tied to water by swimming sperm that require water to reach eggs. Neither of them has pollen, seeds, flowers, or fruits. Seedless vascular plants, however, have xylem and phloem, which bryophytes lack. For seedless vascular plants Cells in diploid sporophyte such as fern from undergo meiosis, releasing haploid spores that germinate and develop into gametophytes. Bryophytes reproduce sexually by forming sperm and egg cells within separate haploid male and female gametophytes.
