The correct answer for the fill in the blank is - A sequence of bases on the DNA that codes for a trait.
Gene is described as a segment of DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid) that codes for a particular protein, which in turn corresponds to a trait/ characteristic of the living organism.
Gene is first transcribed into mRNA ( messenger RNA) through a process called transcription. mRNA is then converted into protein through a process called translation.
The protein thus formed corresponds to a particular trait ( like eye color, hair color).

Answer:
Saturated fats/ solid fats
Explanation:
Vegetable oils amongst other unsaturated oils are liquids at room temperature while saturated oils are solids or spreadable at room temperature.
Industrially, vegetable oils are hydrogenated; hydrogenation is the process of adding hydrogen to an unsaturated compound to make it saturated. This then makes these hydrogenated vegetable oil, saturated which makes them solids as earlier stated, they are also called cis - fatty acids.
Trans - fatty acids as well are also unsaturated oils which are hydrogenated industrially to give saturated fatty acids which are called artificial tran-fats. They are found in most commonly found in baked and fried goods.
