Question

meaning of discrete unit in biology​

Answer 1

Discrete quantity, that which must be divided into units, as number, and is opposed to continued quantity, as duration, or extension.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Discrete, or discontinuous, traits are controlled by a small number of genes, often only one. These genes generally have two alleles. For instance, Mendel's pea seeds had two alleles for shape: smooth or wrinkled. An example of human alleles is seen with freckles; each person has a freckled or non-freckled allele.
