Gene, as such traits are passed down through genes
Human exploitation of fragile ecosystems can lead to the droughts and arid conditions characteristic of desertification. Effects include land degradation, soil erosion and sterility, and a loss of biodiversity, with huge economic costs for nations where deserts are growing.

Answer:
Organic compounds→ nucleotides→ RNA→ universal code.
Organic compounds are the compounds made by living organisms with at least one molecule of carbon linked to different elements like hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen.for example: nucleotides.
A nucleotide is the monomer units of nucleic acids- DNA and RNA. Each nucleotide is made up of organic compounds- sugar, a phosphate molecule and nitrogenous bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine and uracil).
The arrangement of nitrogenous bases in DNA decides the fate of proteins as the sequence of these bases acts as code arranged in the triplet called "codons" which code for specific amino acids.
Thus, Organic compounds→ nucleotides→ RNA→ universal code is the correct answer.
Answer:
The correct answer would be C) It increases survival for cuckoos, but decreases survival of the other birds.
The host chicks often face lots of competition from the cuckoo chicks in terms of food as well as space. It makes it difficult for the host chicks to survive.
It has also been found that cuckoo chicks beg to be fed more intensely due to which host chick die due to starvation.
In addition, in some species of cuckoo, cuckoo chicks remove host eggs from the nest within few days of hatching.
