A a short strand of RNA that can complement and inactivate a sequence of mRNA

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

siRNA stands for small interfering RNA which has a set double-stranded RNA molecule. It is also called as silencing RNA or short interfering RNA. mRNA is a messenger molecule in the siRNA.

siRNA integrates into a protein complex known as RISC that tells the siRNA to target the RNA sequence. Then its double strands unwind into a short strand in that protein complex and remain bound to it.

It then directed by the RISC either to complement ( enhance) the mRNA molecule sequence or to degrade (inactivate) the mRNA molecule sequence.

Genes are transferred from parents to offsprings by inheritance. Each offspring receive half of their genes from mother and half from father. But answer of this question is:- Each offspring receive not exactly the same halves of the genes. This different halved of the genes are the reasons we don't.

Explanation:

The only example is with step parents, or others. Half of the parental genes are passed to the child, so a chance for one to look like the uncle or aunt of the family is high. It can also look like any before them, such as a grandmother, father, great grandmother, etc.
