Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ is the blueprint of life
A
Oxygen
B
DNA
C
Cell
D
all of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -DNA is called the blueprint of life because it contains the instructions needed for an organism to grow, develop, survive and reproduce. DNA does this by controlling protein synthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is the blueprint of the body designs of all living organisms. It carries genetic information and is the information source for protein synthesis for creating body designs. Hence, any modifications in protein synthesis would alter body designs.

Detailed explanation-3: -The blueprint for protein molecules is stored in the cell nucleus in the form of DNA. The DNA itself does not have the ability to build anything; it serves as a place of storage for information. To produce proteins, the blueprint in the DNA is first copied into another macromolecule, the RNA.

Detailed explanation-4: -Roberts Quotes. DNA is the master blueprint for life and constitutes the genetic material in all free-living organisms and most viruses.

Detailed explanation-5: -DNA(deoxyribonucleic acid) is considered the “blueprint” of the cell; it carries all of the genetic information required for the cell to grow, to take in nutrients, and to propagate. RNA–in this role–is the “DNA photocopy” of the cell.
