Answer:

A <u>gene</u> is a segment of DNA which codes for a specific trait​.

Explanation:

Cellular development, replication, and cell repair are controlled by genetic information stored within DNA molecules. The long-chain, helical macromolecules of these deoxyribonucleic acids, are constructed from complex sequences of covalently bonded monomers called nucleotides.  

Genes, can span several nucleotides and even multiple chromosomes. They are encoded through the processes of transcription, translation to become proteins, that determine physical characteristics or phenotypes.

Please help me, is this answer correct?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

All options are correct

Explanation:

Fossils are the remains of organisms (animals and plants) preserved in a rock. Scientists (geologists & palaebiologists) have used fossils to study the diversity of organisms in the past. This is based on their preserved morphological features. For example, several species of foraminifera has been identified in the rocks. Among them, some species are present today whereas others have become extinct.

Similarly, fossils are the indicators of past climate (e.g. temperature) as well. This means, if a specific species can survive at a particular temperature, its presence suggest that particular environment. For example, corals survive in tropical waters at specific depth and sunlight. So, if we find corals fossils, the cliamte of that particular age would be roughly the similar.

In the end, fossils can also provide evidence of orogeny (mountain building) process. These are typically plants fossils which cannot move and their remains are preserved in the folding rocks.
