Answer: A segment of dna/chromosome containing the instructions for building a protein which will result in a trait is called a GENE.
Explanation:
CHROMOSOMES are made up of two threads called chromatids joined at a point called the centromere.
In the chemical nature of chromosomes, each is made up of a protein framework which has a long molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) coiled round it. A segment of DNA containing the instructions for building a protein which will result in a trait is called a GENE.
The GENES in the cell of a diploid organism contain all the necessary instructions for building up the organism.These instructions are written on a molecular scale.. Most genes contain information to direct the synthesis of specific proteins. Each such protein takes part in the development of a particular character.
A protein is made up of one or more chains of amino acids known as polypeptides. The sequence of bases in a DNA molecule determines the type of amino acid and the sequence in which they are arranged in a polypeptide chain.
A gene therefore is a sequence of triplets of the four bases which specifies the structure of a protein
Hey, i don’t see the diagram if you repost the question i will be able to help
Advantages of asexual reproduction:
- There is no need for a mate/ only one parent is required
- It takes less time compared to sexual reproduction
Disadvantages of asexual reproduction:
- There is little genetic variation/less diverse population
- Offspring cannot adapt to change
Advantages of sexual reproduction:
- Genetic diversity
- Offspring can adapt to change
Disadvantages of sexual reproduction:
- Two parents are needed
- Slow reproduction compared to asexual reproduction
