VISUAL ANALOGY The master plan of a building shows how to build and place important parts of the building, such as walls, pipes,

and electrical outlets. On the building site, workers use copies of the master plan called blueprints to show them what to do. The master plan is kept in the office. Explain how mRNA works like a blueprint in constructing proteins.

Answer:

The master plan is represented by the ordered sequence of nucleotides along DNA strands which are used to build proteins. The building blocks are nucleotide bases of nucleic acids (either DNA or RNA) and amino acids of proteins. The messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules represent the blueprints to synthesize proteins from specific regions of DNA (genes). Workers are represented by the structural molecular machinery (e.g., ribosomes) required to decode the genetic information contained in the mRNAs during the process of translation.

Explanation:

The DNA molecule is composed of four different nitrogenous bases or 'building blocks' (i.e., Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine), while in RNA the Thymine is replaced by Uracil. During transcription, a specif region of the DNA molecule called 'gene' is used as template to synthesize a complementary RNA sequence, usually a messenger RNA (mRNA). Subsequently, this mRNA moves to the ribosome where its sequence is used as template to create a protein by a process called translation. The amino acids are the building blocks to build proteins.

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Chromosomes are made up of protein and nucleic acid.

2. Genes are located on chromosomes.

3. Chromosomes are found in the nucleus.

Explanation:

Watson and Crick are known for their findings on the structure of DNA in 1953. Their findings were motivated by the book called "What is Life?".

The book stated the concepts which were well accepted by the scientific communities that is the gene determines the trait which is located on the chromosomes proved by the experiments of Morgan.  

The chromosomes are the condensed structure present in the nucleus was suggested by the Nageli in 1884. The chromosomes are composed of nucleic acid and protein was also proved and was well-accepted fact.

But the genes are made up of DNA was not well accepted which was suggested by the experiments of Avery in 1940s.

Thus, the selected options are the correct answer.
