Answer:

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).

What evidence links echinoderms, hemichordates and chordates to the same evolutionary lineage?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Embryological evidence

Explanation:

Deuterostomes is a group that includes echinoderms, hemichordates, and chordates. Although these animals exhibit a wide variety of body plans, they share a mouth secondarily formed during embryo development, which it is believed to be an evolutionarily derived character present between a common ancestor and all its descendants (i.e., a synapomorphy). This oral cavity is formed by the invagination of the ectoderm layer opposite to the blastopore of the gastrula.
