Question

What are genes?

  1. Pants
  2. Specific traits
  3. Sections of DNA arranged along the chromosomes
  4. Chromosomes

hintHint:

Segment of DNA= gene

The correct answer is: Sections of DNA arranged along the chromosomes


    • Genes are the segments of DNA.
    • DNA folds into chromosomes.
    • Therefore, genes are sections of DNA arranged along the chromosomes.
    • So, the correct option is c.
