What is a gene?
- According to Mendel something was being stably passed down, unchanged, from parent to offspring through the gametes, over successive generations. He called these things as ‘factors’ now called as genes. Genes, therefore, are the units of inheritance.
- They contain the information that is required to express a particular trait in an organism.
- Genes which code for a pair of contrasting traits are known as alleles, i.e., they are slightly different forms of the same gene.
- There is no ambiguity that the genes are located on the DNA, it is difficult to literally define a gene in terms of DNA sequence.
- The DNA sequence coding for tRNA or rRNA molecule also defines a gene. A cistron is defined as a segment of DNA coding for a polypeptide, the structural gene in a transcription unit could be said as monocistronic (mostly in eukaryotes) or polycistronic (mostly in bacteria or prokaryotes).

Explanation:
Prokaryotes are single celled organism that lacks a membrane bound nucleus, mitochondria, or any other membrane bound organelle. Examples of prokaryotes include all single-celled organisms, most of which are bacteria. The principle ecological role of prokaryotes is to break down organic matter.
Answer:
Water distribution on Earth greatly affect settlement of population because water is a necessary item for the survival of living creatures. Without water there is no life. Availability of water increases vegetation and increases the beautification of the area and peoples are attracted to live there.
Those areas where plenty of water is available having maximum population while those areas where water is present in low quantity, the population is also low like deserts.
