Question

Leela draws the diagram shown here. The diagram describes the relationship between the cell, chromosomes, and genes.

A%20cell%20has%20chromosomes%20inside%20it.%20A%20chromosome%20is%20enlarged%20to%20show%20it%20is%20made%20of%20a%20tightly-would%20spiral%20molecule.%20A%20section%20of%20this%20molecule%20is%20labeled%20as%20a%20gene.
How could she revise the diagram to show the function of genes?

A.
Draw several genes and surrounding the chromosome.
B.
Draw a protein, then draw an arrow from the gene to the protein.
C.
Draw an arrow from the gene to the nucleus of the cell.
D.
Draw a carbohydrate, then draw an arrow from the gene to the carbohydrate.

Answer 1

B

Genes contain the instructions to make proteins (or RNA). Showing a protein with an arrow from the gene indicates gene expression and its functional product.
