Answer: Because they are what gives DNA, and keeps track of the heredity of the parent(s).
Explanation:
Nucleic Acid, DNA, (Deoxyribonucleic acid) is the blueprint of making genetic material.
<span>During the development of
a gamete, the two alleles of the P generation separate. Each gamete carries one allele from each
parent which randomly pairs in the F1 generation. This mechanism repeats when
F1 plants cross and yield F2 plants. The
outcome of the F2 generation would then have new combinations of alleles which
can be different compared to the preceding generations.</span>
False. It's not always reliable. For example, in lab mice, saccharin has caused tumors. But for humans to get cancer from saccharin, we would have to take in astronomical levels of saccharin, which we, as humans, don't do.
