Correct answer: "a section of DNA that codes for a specific trait."
Brief explanation: a gene is a segment of DNA that contains the instructions for making a functional product (usually a protein or RNA) that can influence a trait. The other choices are incorrect: an allele is an alternate version of a gene; a phenotype is the visible trait; proteins do not code for DNA.
