Question
- A. It means students should be able to explain that the order of bases controls the order of amino acids in a protein.
- B. It means A is never assessed in Reproduction.
- C. It means learners only need to memorise the topic title for DNA structure (biology only).
- D. It means students should give the opposite of the approved learning objective.
Answer
The correct answer is It means students should be able to explain that the order of bases controls the order of amino acids in a protein..
Explanation
The correct option is It means students should be able to explain that the order of bases controls the order of amino acids in a protein. because it directly reflects the approved learning objective: Explain that the order of bases controls the order of amino acids in a protein..
Common mistake
Base‑order misinterpretation
Students think the order of bases only affects the DNA sequence, not the resulting protein sequence.
Explain that each codon (three bases) is read by the ribosome to specify a particular amino acid, so changing base order changes the amino‑acid order in the protein.
