A manual contains instructions for how to build a variety of structures using a set of interlocking bricks. If this scenario is used as a model for genetic information, which statement is correct?(1 point)

Question

Responses

Each structure is a gene.
Each structure is a gene.

The interlocking bricks are the chromosomes.
The interlocking bricks are the chromosomes.

Each set of instructions is a protein.
Each set of instructions is a protein.

The manual is a chromosome.

Answer 1

In the analogy given, the correct statement is:

Each structure is a gene.

In this model, the specific arrangements and combinations of interlocking bricks (representing individual units of genetic information) make up the structures, which can be compared to genes that determine specific traits or functions. The other options do not accurately align with the biological concepts of genetics.
