Answer: A segment of dna/chromosome containing the instructions for building a protein which will result in a trait is called a GENE.
Explanation:
CHROMOSOMES are made up of two threads called chromatids joined at a point called the centromere.
In the chemical nature of chromosomes, each is made up of a protein framework which has a long molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) coiled round it. A segment of DNA containing the instructions for building a protein which will result in a trait is called a GENE.
The GENES in the cell of a diploid organism contain all the necessary instructions for building up the organism.These instructions are written on a molecular scale.. Most genes contain information to direct the synthesis of specific proteins. Each such protein takes part in the development of a particular character.
A protein is made up of one or more chains of amino acids known as polypeptides. The sequence of bases in a DNA molecule determines the type of amino acid and the sequence in which they are arranged in a polypeptide chain.
A gene therefore is a sequence of triplets of the four bases which specifies the structure of a protein
Weak covalent bonds such as the ones in carbohydrates and lipid have A LOT OF POTENTIAL ENERGY.
Potential energy refers to energy stored in a substance. The potential energy in the covalent bond of macro molecules are converted to chemical energy in food, the chemical energy is used by the body system to carry out all the biochemical reactions that will keep the cells alive.<span />
Answer:
Prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I and telophase I.
Explanation:
Prophase I is the phase of meiosis I in which DNA condenses to form chromosomes whereas in metaphase I, each pair of chromosomes lines up in the center of the cell. In anaphase I, each pair of chromosomes is separated from one another which is pulled by the spindle to opposite poles of the cell. In telophase I, the duplicated genetic material is separated that leads to two identical daughter cells.
