<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.

Compare and contrast mold and cast fossils
Kazeer [188]
Fossil molds and casts preserve a three-dimensional impression of remains buried in sediment. Cast fossils occur when mold fossils are filled in with minerals that harden over time, creating a fossilized replica of the original organism. Mold fossil-A fossil formed when an animal, plant, or other organism dies and is covered by sediment, its flesh decays and bones deteriorate due to chemical reactions, and a cavity remains below the ground surface.
