Since Precipitation is rain evaporation is water which is turning in to gas and goes to the air or atmosphere
Answer:
Traits like white eye color in fruit flies are linked to the X chromosome.
Why:
Thomas Hunt Morgan was a scientist, he worked with Drosohilla and studied the sex chromosomes in fruit flies. In the course of his study he discovered that the white eye colour is recessive compared to the dominant red eye colour in the flies and that the white eye color gene is linked to the X sex chromosomes.
These are all secreted by the pancreas.

The description is provided in the explanation section below
Explanation:
ALTERNATION OF GENERATIONS is a unique phenomenon whereby certain organisms switch between a diploid state and a haploid state in their reproductive life cycle. It is a feature of plants (higher and lower).
A plant is a diploid organism (2n) i.e. contains two set of chromosomes. This diploid state of the plant is called the SPOROPHYTE. The diploid sporophyte (2n) of a plant undergoes meiotic division (reduction division) to produce haploid spores. These haploid spores germinates and grows via mitosis (duplication division) to form the haploid GAMETOPHYTE.
The haploid gametophyte (n), via structures called GAMENTAGIA, produces haploid gametes. The male gametophyte produces male gametes (sperm) while the female gametophyte produces female gamete (egg). These haploid gametes eventually fuse in a process called FERTILIZATION to produce a diploid ZYGOTE (2n) i.e. sperm (n) + egg (n) = zygote (2n). The ZYGOTE undergoes series of mitotic divisions (growth) to form the diploid SPOROPHYTE (2n) of the plant. The cycle restarts again in that order, hence it is called ALTERNATION OF GENERATIONS.
N.B: Mitosis maintains the number of chromosomes of the parent cell while meiosis reduces the chromosomal number of the parent cell by half.
