How do dna, genes, and chromosomes work together to pass on characteristics from parents to offspring? ?

DNA - deoxyribonucleic acid.The main constituent of chromosomes. It is the carrier of genetic information 
Genes - A unit of heredity that is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring 
Chromosomes - A threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes... Keep this in mind: Inside every cell in your body are little "blueprints" that make you what you are! Those "blueprints," called DNA, contain everything necessary to sustain human life as well as physical traits that make you unique. The color of your hair, skin, and eyes; how tall or short you are; whether you're a man or a woman; the dimple in your chin; the bushy eyebrows-all these traits are passed on to you from your parents.

Inside the spiral-shaped DNA molecule are 26 pair of x-shaped chromosomes comprised of genes (little complex, protein packages that determine heredity). As a cell divides, the DNA molecule splits into equal halves and each half becomes part of a new cell. In human reproduction, a female egg (13 pair of chromosomes) joins up with a male sperm cell (13 pair of chromosomes), bringing the total number back up to 26 pair again.

humans can cause extinction of a species through overharvesting, pollution, habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species (such as new predators and food competitors), overhunting, and other influences. explosive, unsustainable human population growth is an essential cause of the extinction crisis.

explanation:

i didn't have the answer choices , but i tried my best.

answer; i believe its echoic memory,it is believed to last three to four seconds; good luck
