Ans. (B). Genes.

The chemicals that kill the weeds are known as herbicides. Herbicide-resistance is defined as the inherited ability of weeds to survive an application of herbicide, that can kill a normal weed plant of same species.

The resistance develops due to mutations in genes that were sensitive to those chemicals in wild-type forms. As genes are responsible for transfer of characteristics from one to another generation, the herbicide-resistance is also passed down to generations through genes.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

lukranit [14]
As electrons move along the chain, hydrogen ion are pumped from the stroma of the chloroplast into thylakoid lumen. these leads to creation of proton gradient in thylakoid lumen with the potential energy that will be used to synthesize ATP by enzyme ATPase in the process referred to as rotational catalysis. both chloroplast and mitochondria use electron transport chain to pump protons across the membrane and both enzyme ATPase to produce ATP using proton gradient created in the process of transport of hydrogen ions. the main existing between the electron transport chains of chloroplast and mitochondria is the initial source of energy. chloroplasts obtain their energy from sunlight whereas mitochondria obtain theirs from organic molecules.
