Answer:

Gene

Explanation:

A GENE is the unit of inheritance in virtually the cells of all living organisms. It is a segment of DNA that codes for the ability to make one type of protein molecule. In other words, a gene encodes the synthesis of amino acids, which are building blocks of protein.

Genes are naturally found on chromosomes on which they undergo expression i.e. from gene - MRNA (transcription), from mRNA - protein (translation). Hence, based on the question asked, the segment of DNA that carries instructions for protein synthesis is called a GENE.

What happens to the chemical properties of a substance when it becomes part of a mixture?
Andreyy89

When a substance becomes part of a mixture, its chemical properties ONLY change if the resulting mixture is homogeneous. Otherwise nothing happens to the properties.


Explanation:

The formula of a selected pure substance doesn't amendment simply because it becomes a part of a mix. Chemical properties can amendment in a very mixture. If you've got a mix of water and alcohol, the melting point are below 0C. That doesn't mean that water now not freezes at 0C, it simply means that the mixture of water and alcohol doesn't freeze at 0C.
