B) An allele is one form of a gene.

Explanation:

An allele refers to an alternative form of a gene. In other words it is one of the form of a gene.A gene may have two alleles, where one of the allele is a dominant allele and the other is a recessive allele. A homozygous organisms may be dominant or recessive, a homozygous recessive contains two recessive alleles while a homozygous dominant contains two dominant alleles.A heterozygous organisms contain one dominant allele and one recessive allele.

2. Answer;

B) Alleles

Explanation;

According to Mendel genes are inherited in pairs of alleles that behave in a dominant and recessive pattern. Alleles are alternative forms of a gene. A gene may have two alleles, where one of the allele is a dominant allele and the other is a recessive allele. A homozygous organisms may be dominant or recessive, a homozygous recessive contains two recessive alleles while a homozygous dominant contains two dominant alleles.

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).

qualitative observation deals with data that can be observed with our senses: sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. they do not involve measurements or numbers. for instance, colors, shapes, and textures of objects are all qualitative observations.
