Answer:

The correct option is <em>C. A gene is a specific segment of DNA on a chromosome</em>

Explanation:

Option A is false because a gene is a segment on a chromosome.

Option B is false because a chromosome carries many genes.

Option D is false because a gene carries a segment of DNA, not all of the DNA.

Option C is correct because there are many genes present on a single chromosome. Each gene carries a segment of DNA. The position of a gene on the chromosome is known as its loci.

Explanation:

For question 2 I  think the answer is Endocytosis. 'Exo' means out and 'Endo' means in.

lawyer [7]

Answer: Gradualism and punctuated equilibrium are two ways in which the evolution of a species can occur. A species can evolve by only one of these, or by both.
