Explanation:

The  Chromosomal Theory of Inheritance, basically answer the question: where are genes found in a cell?

It was described by Sutton and Boveri between 1902-1903 and states that individual genes are found at specific locations on particular chromosomes. It also postulates that the behavior of chromosomes during meiosis can explain why genes are inherited according to Mendel’s laws.

It states:

- Chromosomes, like Mendel's genes, come in matched (homologous) pairs in an organism:  one member comes from the mother and one from the father.

- The members of a homologous pair separate in meiosis, so each sperm or egg receives just one member. This is referred as the law of segregation.

-The members of different chromosome pairs are sorted into gametes independently of one another in meiosis.

aksik [14]

Answer:

The correct option is A. Matter is conserved during the burning of wood

Explanation:

One of the major theories of matter states that the amount of mass at the start of a reaction is equal to the amount of the mass at the end of the reaction.

As in Joan's study, he shows that the amount of carbon atoms remain 840 during each of the combustion reactions. The number of carbon atoms in wood at the start of the reaction was equal to the number of carbon atoms in carbon dioxide at the end of the reaction. Hence, Joan's model supports the theory that matter is conserved during the burning of the wood.
