Genetics MCQs
Hello students, our next topic is ‘Genetics’. DNA molecule is studied under term genetics. The thread like structure in the nucleus of the cell are chromatids. The functional segments on the chromosomes are genes. The gene is the segment of DNA. DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid and contains genetic information.
