Answer:

The correct answer will be option C.

Explanation:

Chromosome is a packaged structure of DNA observed in the cell nucleus during metaphase stage of cell division when aligned in the equatorial plate of the cell.

Chromosomes number varies in different species which facilitates replication and distribution of the DNA to new daughter cells during cell division.

Chromosome is formed after coiling of DNA many times around proteins called histones which provides the structural support to DNA and form a special structure nucleosomes,  further coil up and create chromatin loops which further coil around each other and make a full chromosome.  

Thus, option C is the correct answer.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Mendel's law of independent assortment states that the genes are separated and inherited independently of each other into the gametes.

The corn can be used to study the law if independent assortment as each kernel of the corn is its fruit. Thus, it is a result of sexual reproduction.

Single corn may contain 800-1000 kernels which may have different shape, texture, structure et cetera as result of independent assortment, that is, each kernel receives alleles of genes independent of each other.

For example, a gene responsible for the texture of kernel would be inherited independently of the gene responsible for the color of the kernel.
