Solution

The correct option is B Q
An example of a gene that can be passed from a human parent to its offspring is the tongue rolling gene. So, this information is stored in DNA, which is a part of chromatin network as labelled in the diagram as Q.

As a genetic molecule, DNA can transmit genetic information from generation to generation owing to its capacity to self-replicate. DNA is present in the form of genes, and is passed from one generation to another.

In the given diagram, P is nucleolus which is the site of synthesis of ribosomes. R is endoplasmic reticulum which produce steroids, lipids and gives a rigid support and structure to the cell. S is the nucleoplasm, which serves as the suspension substance for the organelles inside the nucleus.

So, the correct answer is Q, chromatin network.
