• zoology
• biology
• chemistry
• physics

One of the unifying concepts of biology, one of the definers of life, study of genes, how they are transmitted,

how they work, study of heredity resulting from genes, basis of inheritance

• zoology
• biology
• chemistry
• genetics

genes provide instructions for how to develop a function

• true

• false

genetics are the blueprint for anatomy and physiology

• false

• true

Unit of hereditary function

• gene
• chromosome
• protein
• DNA

How information is stored, transferred, and translated

• gene
• chromosome
• protein
• DNA

Nucleotide sequence in DNA that provides instructions for RNA transcription, which when translated into proteins express a trait

• gene
