DNA REPLICATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What determines the traits of an organism?
A
The length of DNA molecules
B
The way nucleotides are paired in the two strands of DNA
C
The order of nucleotides in DNA molecules
D
The proportions of A, T, C, and G in DNA molecules
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -So the correct option we have is the option be the order of nucleotides. In DNA molecule.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Sanger method relies upon a variation of the replication process described above in order to determine the sequence of nucleotides in a segment of DNA.

Detailed explanation-3: -A trait, as related to genetics, is a specific characteristic of an individual. Traits can be determined by genes, environmental factors or by a combination of both.

Detailed explanation-4: -The genetic code dictates which proteins the cell manufactures. Proteins are strands of amino acids. The sequence of nucleotides in DNA genes determines the order of amino acids in a protein. This is the direct connection between your genes and your traits.
