The correct statement in this analogy is:
**c. the manual is a chromosome.**
In this model, the manual represents a chromosome, which contains the instructions (genes) for building structures (proteins) using interlocking bricks (nucleotides or building blocks of DNA). Each structure corresponds to a different gene, and the complete set of instructions in the manual corresponds to the genetic information contained in the chromosome.
