Answer:

The rigid, solid layer of the upper mantle that is connected to the crust is called Lithosphere.

Explanation:

The different layers of Earth are crust, mantle and core. Crust is the thin outer portion of the planet. Mantle is the thick, dense layer of rock underneath the crust, which is solid near the top and partially melted beneath the surface. The lithosphere includes the crust and outer rigid portion of the mantle while the partially melted portion of the mantle is called the asthenosphere.

The atmosphere of earth is a gaseous layer which surrounds the earth and protects the life on earth. The five layers of atmosphere are troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere, where mesosphere is the third highest layer of the atmosphere.

Answer:

Genes coding for proteins involved in chiasma formation.

Explanation:

Chiasma is the connecting link between two non sister chromatids from homologous chromosomes. At chiasma chromosomal crossover takes place in which the genetic material is exchanged between the chromatids. During meiosis aneuploidy occurs if chiasma is absent or impaired due to a mutation in genes encoding for proteins involved in chiasma formation.

Aneuploidy is characterised by presence of abnormal number of chromosomes in cells. They can be 45 or 47 in number apart from the usual 46. Due to impaired chiasma, chromosome pair fails to separate and is passed on to the egg or sperm as it is hence there is one gamete with an extra chromosome and one gamete with a less chromosome. Aneuploidy can result in many genetic disorders like three copies of chromosome 21 can result in Down syndrome.
