Which of the following represents the correct flow of genetic information? A) DNA → Genes → Chromosomes B) Genes → Chromosomes → DNA C) Chromosomes → DNA → Genes D) Genes → DNA → Chromosomes
Understand the Problem
The question is asking which option correctly describes the sequence of genetic information flow within biological systems. The response should identify the proper relationship between DNA, genes, and chromosomes.
Answer
DNA → Genes → Chromosomes
The correct flow of genetic information is DNA → Genes → Chromosomes.
Answer for screen readers
The correct flow of genetic information is DNA → Genes → Chromosomes.
More Information
DNA contains the genetic blueprint which is segmented into genes. These genes are then packaged into chromosomes, which are structures within cells that store and transmit genetic information.
Tips
A common mistake is misplacing genes as the origin or end of the genetic information flow; remember that DNA is the fundamental unit.
