Answer:

During cell division, genetic material of parents in the form of genes and alleles is transferred to the offspring. DNA is responsible for encoding genetic information.

Explanation:

DNA consists of genetic information in the form of nucleotide which are nothing but chemical compounds composed of phosphate, sugar and four nitrogenous bases. DNA consists of two chains made up of nucleotide with alternate sugar and phosphate group.  

All living beings exhibit genetic information forms their ancestors and hence they carry genetic material from two parents in case of sexual reproduction and one parent in case of asexual reproduction. Genes carry allele which is responsible for expressing any physical trait.

Olenka [21]

Answer:

A. Populations of native wetlands plants will recolonize the land.

Explanation:

From many years' wetlands are converted into farmlands as they provide retention of soil, proper food and clean water, and the cycling of nutrients. But wetlands should not be permanently converted<em> because it can increase the load on soil and add pollutants (pesticides or fertilizers) in the soil and  groundwater.</em>

If the farming stops and water flows on the land again, the native plants present in wetlands will help to recolonize the land which is disrupted by farming activities.

Hence, the correct option is A.
