The correct statement is option A which is, "A gene is a segment on the DNA. DNA is wrapped in proteins to form a chromosome".Explanation:A gene is the part of DNA in the nucleus which encodes for the specific trait in the body. DNA is the nucleotide sequence which is the blue print for the whole organism. It contains genes for all the structures and functions in the body.So it is very long sequence containing the million of genes. So in nucleus it is present in compress form.

The right option is; D.

Every individual possess two copies of each gene that are inherited from each parent. Alleles are alternative forms or version of a gene that has little differences in their sequence of DNA bases. These small differences are responsible for every individual’s unique physical traits.
