Chromosomes are made of condensed coils of DNA. Genes are segments on a chromosome that carry the code for a specific trait. Alleles are contrasting forms of a gene. Dominant means that a particular trait will be visible. Recessive means that a trait will be hidden (unless it is paired with another recessive gene). A trait is how the gene is seen. For example, eye color is a trait.
The purple color of potassium permanganate gradually spreads throughout the water in the jar by the process of diffusion.
- Diffusion is the process of movement of a substance from the region of higher concentration to the regions of lower concentration. Diffusion occurs in liquids as well as gases.
- Potassium permanganate is a purple color compound, when it is added in a jar of water it spreads throughout the water by the virtue of diffusion.
- The concentration of potassium permanganate is higher at one point and the other regions in the jar have its nil or low concentrations initially, this leads to the set up of a concentration gradient.
- As time passes diffusion occurs and the particles of potassium permanganate keep on migrating to the regions of low concentration until the concentration is uniform throughout the jar. Ultimately, it spread throughout the jar making the water purple.

The answer that fits the blank provided above is STEROIDS. Steroids are fat-soluble signal molecules. This is one of the derivative compounds of cholesterol along with Vitamin D and bile salts. All steroid hormones are considered as a derivative of cholesterol. The answer for this would be option D.
Answer: The genes have a codominant pattern of inheritance because the heterozygous forms both traits equally.
Explanation:
Hyponatremia is a condition where the concentration of sodium is abnormally low in the body. Sodium acts as an electrolyte that helps in maintaining the amount of water in the body.
Extremely low amount of sodium in the body leads to weakness, headache, etc. During periods of intense activity body releases vasopressin hormone that helps body to retain water. Endurance athletes become vulnerable to developing hyponatremia because these athletes during water during strenuous exercises. This makes the concentration of sodium low in the body by diluting it with more water.This may lead to hyponatremia.
