Question

Which statement best describes the role of DNA ?

It directly forms proteins.

It speeds up chemical reactions inside of cells.

It provides a form of energy for cells.

It transmits genetic information to the next generation.

Answer 1

Answer:A- It directly forms proteins

Explanation:

DNA is the molecule that stores the universal genetic code all organisms need to live, grow, and reproduce. SO it provides all the proteins and it directly forms them.

Answer 2

Answer:

It transmits genetic information to the next generation.

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material of almost all the living organism. DNA is made of the four nitrogenous bases, deoxyribose pentose sugar and the phosphate group.

DNA has the ability to acts as the hereditary material as it gets transfer from one generation to the next generation. Organism inherit their DNA from their parents. DNA is convertyed into RNA and further into the protein that plays role in the phenotypic and genotypic expression of the individual.

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).
