Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which best explains the function of the sequence of nucleotides?
A
It provides energy.
B
It carries genetic information.
C
It allows DNA to be successfully copied.
D
It determines the shape of the DNA molecule.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Genetic information is carried in the linear sequence of nucleotides in DNA. Each molecule of DNA is a double helix formed from two complementary strands of nucleotides held together by hydrogen bonds between G-C and A-T base pairs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Genetic Code: The sequence of nucleotides, coded in triplets (codons) along the mRNA, that determines the sequence of amino acids in protein synthesis. A gene’s DNA sequence can be used to predict the mRNA sequence, and the genetic code can in turn be used to predict the amino acid sequence.

Detailed explanation-3: -A sequence of DNA nucleotides that contains information to synthesize a protein is known as a gene (Answer Choice B).

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
