- Removing waste
- Governing inherited traits
- Create new enzymes
- Digestion
Hint:
Genes govern inherited traits.
The correct answer is: Governing inherited traits
- Genetic material(gene) is primarily responsible for governing inherited traits.
- Gene is a segment of DNA.
- Codes for specific proteins.
- So, the correct option is b.
- Digestion is mechanical and chemical process.
- Waste is removed from the body in various ways from kidneys, lungs, intestine etc.
- Almost all enzymes are made up of protein.
