Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Genomics is the study of the functions and interactions of all the genes in the genome. Genetics is the study of single genes and their effects. Both are subsets of biology, which is the study of life and living matter. Inheritance is the way in which genetic material is passed on to subsequent generations.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Most genes are located on chromosomes found in the nucleus of cells. Golgi bodies process cellular proteins. Lysosomes break down waste and cellular debris. Mitochondria are responsible for cellular energy production.
