10 Questions
What are the criteria that the genetic material must meet?
Contain information for protein synthesis, self-replicate with fidelity, be located in chromosomes
What controls the growth, development, and functioning of a cell?
Proteins, primarily enzymes
What do proteins within a cell primarily control?
Cell's phenotype
What do different cells contain that confer different functions on them?
Different proteins
Where do most metabolic processes occur, and what facilitates each step in the pathway?
Pathways within a cell, with an enzyme facilitating each step
Genetic material must contain information that controls the synthesis of enzymes and other proteins
True
Proteins within a cell control most of the cell's phenotype
True
