Correct answer: A). Genes

Genes are the small segments of the DNA, it contains the information that is required for the synthesis of specific proteins. The main function of the gene is to store the instructions for the specific traits of the individual like the color of eye and color of skin. It is a basic unit of heredity in a living organism. The alternate form of the gene is called as alleles.

Hence the correct answer would be option A.

Hint:think about the direction of movement caused by stress
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Compression is a reverse fault, tension is normal fault and shear is strike slip fault.

Explanation:

Compression is a reverse fault, tension is normal fault and shear is strike slip fault. Reverse fault is opposite of normal fault which occurs due to the stress of compression on an object in which both object come close together. Due to tension stress, rocks pulling apart from each other, produces a normal fault. Shear is strike slip fault because in strike-slip fault, the two blocks slide over one another

Pani-rosa [81]
I believe that plant hormonal control differs from animal hormonal control in that there are no separate hormone-producing organs in plants as there are in animals.  Hormones regulate cellular processes in targeted cells locally and moved to other locations, in other function parts of the plant. Hormones also determine the formation of flowers, stems, leaves, the shedding of leaves, and the development and ripening of fruit. Plants unlike animals they lack glands that produce and secrete hormones and instead each cell is capable of producing hormones.
