Answer:
The organism's genotype encodes their phenotype because the <u>genotype</u> corresponds to the characteristic that is determined by genes —formed by fragments of <u>DNA</u>— which are transcribed into <u>mRNA</u> to be translated into amino acid sequences in the synthesis of <u>proteins</u>, determining the morphological and functional characteristics of an organism, that is, its phenotype.
Explanation:
<u>Genotype</u> corresponds to the genetic information contained in the <u>DNA</u>, according to the sequence of nucleotides in its molecular structure. This genotype includes characteristics or polymorphisms that define the appearance and function of living beings.
Each DNA molecule constitutes a chromosome, formed by genes —DNA fragments— each of which determines specific characteristics.
When DNA is transcribed into <u>mRNA</u>, information is being sent that is necessary for the incorporation of amino acids into a <u>protein</u> that is being synthesized. The proteins, in turn, determine morphological and functional characteristics that constitute the <u>phenotype</u> of an individual.
The answer is C; it isn't performed by cancer cells. This statement is untrue. Cancer cells are indeed capable of reproduction by cell division... in fact, according to most evidence today they appear to be better at it than normal cells.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
When cells become damaged or die the body makes new cells to replace them. This process is called cell division. One cell doubles by dividing into two.
The right answer is Watson and Crick.
The famous science journal "Nature" published an article of two pages, accompanied by one figure, titled "A Structure for Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid". Its authors are James Dewey Watson (24) and Francis Crick (36).
They synthesized the work of their scientific colleagues and were able to explain with a remarkable art of deduction how the DNA molecule contained in the cells of all living beings was duplicated.
