  • The statement that alleles on homologous chromosomes determine traits, correctly describes the mechanism of inheritance.
  • Homologous chromosomes are defined as a pair of chromosomes which have the genes arranged on them in the same order however the alleles may be different.
  • The chromosome pair of homologous chromosomes is formed because a diploid organism has one paternal and one maternal chromosome, and when these 2 chromosomes pair together we get a homoglous chromosmes.
  • The variants of a particular gene present on the chromosome are known as alleles.
  • The combination of the alleles transferred from the parents to the offspring is responsible for the inheritance of traits.

the thesis statement names supporting points in the same order that they appear as the paragraphs in the body section.
algol [13]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A thesis statement provides the idea of what the thesis is going to be in about two sentences. The sequence of the statement is simply the introduction of the topic and then the position the author is taking in regards to the topic by providing the supporting points in a similar way as provided in the body. This way the thesis statement does name the supporting points in the same order that they appear as the paragraphs in the body section. Hence, this statement is true as the supporting argument is presented in the same sequence as it is presented in the body section.
