<span>A book contains letters, just like the DNA. It's how the letters are arranged-into words in a book- that makes them mean anything. The same is true of DNA bases. It is how they are arranged that makes them significant.</span>

DNA is like a book because the arrangement of nucleotides in the DNA determines the entire organism’s phenotype.

Further Explanation:

Gene is defined as the linear sequence of the nucleotides that are mainly encoded for a protein having a particular function. The alleles are defined as the variant type of the gene. DNA is mainly made up of the nucleotides and also contains genetic information in the genes. Every nucleotide mainly comprised of the phosphate group, deoxyribose, and nitrogenous base. DNA is mainly composed of four distinct types of nitrogenous base:

  • Cytosine  
  • Adenine
  • Guanine
  • Thymine

The letters in the book are similar to the nucleotide in the DNA. The meaningful combination of letters forms the information that is entitled. Similarly, the arrangement of nucleotides in the DNA is responsible for the structural and functional behavior of the organism. That’s why DNA is considered as a book that enclosed all the genetic information of the body.

natita [175]
<span>The answer is c, incomplete dominance. The dominate trait of the red petals is their red color. The dominate trait for the white petals is their white color. When their offspring have pink petals, neither parental phenotype trait is dominate over the other. Their colors are equally represented in the pink color of the offspring, which shows incomplete dominance - a case where neither parental phenotype is more visible than the other. The ratio of their colors represented in the offspring is one to one.</span>
