The answer is the last one: gene.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Genome: A genome is the complete set of DNA, including all of its genes, in an organism. It is not a single unit of heredity but rather the entire collection of genetic material.

  2. Homologous pair: This refers to a pair of chromosomes, one from each parent, that have the same genes at the same loci but possibly different alleles. It is not a unit of heredity itself.

  3. Amino acid: Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They are not units of heredity; rather, they are the products of gene expression.

  4. Gene: A gene is a unit of heredity that consists of a sequence of DNA on a chromosome. It is responsible for the inheritance of specific traits and is the correct answer to the question.

In summary, a gene is the correct term for a unit of heredity consisting of a sequence of DNA on a chromosome.

Ray Bradbury - "The Veldt" Class Discussion Write a short response expressing your thoughts and opinions about Bradbury's "The Veldt". Use the following questions to help generate your response. 1. Only George and Lydia Hadley appear in "The Veldt" first part. How are they and their lives characterized? How does each parent view their HappyLife Home, especially the nursery? What might account for the differences in their views at this stage? 2. How and why do those views, especially George's views, evolve over the course of the story? 3. As the story makes clear, the nursery could have turned into any setting either Peter and Wendy, or their creator, Ray Bradbury, chose. How might the choice of an African veldt affect the story's characterization of the children and of their relationship to their parents? How might if affect the story's theme? Feel free to use these questions as kickstarters to build your own response. In addition to posting your thoughts, respond to at least one other student's post.
