What is a gene?
- According to Mendel something was being stably passed down, unchanged, from parent to offspring through the gametes, over successive generations. He called these things as ‘factors’ now called as genes. Genes, therefore, are the units of inheritance.
- They contain the information that is required to express a particular trait in an organism.
- Genes which code for a pair of contrasting traits are known as alleles, i.e., they are slightly different forms of the same gene.
- There is no ambiguity that the genes are located on the DNA, it is difficult to literally define a gene in terms of DNA sequence.
- The DNA sequence coding for tRNA or rRNA molecule also defines a gene. A cistron is defined as a segment of DNA coding for a polypeptide, the structural gene in a transcription unit could be said as monocistronic (mostly in eukaryotes) or polycistronic (mostly in bacteria or prokaryotes).

The correct options are as follows:
1. ELECTRICAL TRANSMISSION THROUGH NEURONS AND CHEMICAL TRANSMISSION BETWEEN NEURONS [D].
Neurons, which are the nerve cells that carry nerve impulses are made up of cell body and dendrites. Electrical events propagate signals within a neuron and chemical processes transmit the signals from one neuron to the other.
2. SENSORY NEURON - BRAIN - SPINAL CORD - MOTOR NEURONS [B].
Waking up from sleep involves sensory neurons. Hearing of a strange sound is made possible by the activity of the brain. The man become alarm as a result of the message to the body from the brain via the spinal cord and running involves motor neurons.
3. MOTOR NEURONS AND SENSORY NEURONS [A].
The peripheral nervous system is one of the two components of the nervous system and is made up of the nerves and the ganglia outside the brain and the spinal cord. The neurons of the peripheral nervous system is made up of sensory and motor neurons. The sensory neurons bring signals to the central nervous system while the motor neurons carry signals out of the central nervous system.

<span>Body fat directly influences total body water. The influence of age, gender and fitness is also relative. Women and older persons tend to be lower on total boy water because they have lower fat free masses. Athletes tend to have higher total body water, therefore a younger athletic male would have the highest.</span>
