Answer:

Option "B & C"

B: One structural difference between the two species is the reduced size of the island fox, a feature known as dwarfism.

C: The various island subspecies also differ from each other in size, number of tail vertebrae, and other characteristics.

The DNA segment that carries information for building one protein or polypeptide chain is called a(n) ________.
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is a gene

Explanation:

The DNA segment that carries information for coding one protein or polypeptide is called a gene. According to one gene-one polypeptide hypothesis, each gene is responsible for making a single chain of the polypeptide.

Originally it was said that one gene codes for one enzyme but later it was found that some gene also codes for non-enzyme proteins and single polypeptide chains. So after this research, the theory was modified and one gene-one polypeptide theory came. Therefore the right answer is gene.
