Answer: The given statement is True.

Gene can be described as the segment of DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid), which codes for a particular protein. The protein thus formed, corresponds to a specific trait ( such as skin color, hair color, color of eye) of the individual organism.

They possess set of  instructions for making a protein in the form of nucleotide sequences. Gene undergo transcription to form mRNA ( messenger RNA), which is then converted into particular protein through translation.

Genes are inherited from parents by their offspring and in this way specific traits are inherited by offspring from their parents.

Thus, given statement in the question is correct.

Over time, a tadpole changes into a frog. Has it evolved?
Illusion [34]
No, because its genes are still the same. To evolvewould mean that the frog had one set of genes as a tadpole, then a different set as an adult. It just doesn't work that way. The genes are the same.
