Answer:

D. A segment of DNA molecule

Explanation:

Gene is a segment of a DNA molecule that holds instruction needed for the synthesis of useful products (protein). Ideally, DNA is the storage material of genetic information in a cell. The DNA harbors the GENE, which itself is being expressed in order to use the information contained in it to produce useful products responsible for the phenotype of an organism.

A gene contains sequences made up of nucleotide bases that determines the sequence of amino acids to be produced, and ultimately the type of protein.

charle [14.2K]

<h2>The correct answer is: e.</h2>

Explanation:

Decline in the global population of amphibians is due to multiple reasons which include:

A moist ecosystem is necessary for amphibians especially for the purpose of their reproduction. The drainage of the wetlands deprives them of their habitat.
Pollutants adversely affects the survival of the gametes, tadpoles or the adult amphibians by acting as toxic agents and inhibiting their normal metabolic function.
Infectious diseases often cause their death resulting their population to decline.
Global climate warming affects their normal metabolic growth and development and hence causes their population to decline.

What biological process releases carbon dioxide back into atmosphere?

marusya05 [52]

Explanation:

Respiration is the type of biological exercise that raises Co₂ concentration in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

RESPIRATION is said to be the basic biological and metabolic process that is essential for all living beings for their survival and growth with nourishment.

Cells are the basic unit of living organisms that undergo cellular respiration. In this process, oxygen is in taken and carbon dioxide is respired out which adds the concentration of the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

In the process of respiration, the living cells of the organism produce energy by the intake of oxygen for the oxidation of complex organic substances and expires out the carbon dioxide.
