The development of understanding of genetics and evolution

Question

  1. A. Correct contrast: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Resistant bacteria because students must explain that resistant strains survive antibiotic treatment and reproduce.
  2. B. Reversed contrast: Calling a gene a whole chromosome. This would blur DNA vs genes instead of testing Resistant bacteria.
  3. C. Over-broad contrast: Explaining protein coding without naming the gene as the relevant section of DNA. This misses the objective focus on explain that resistant strains survive antibiotic treatment and reproduce.
  4. D. Unrelated contrast: It moves into a neighbouring Unit 4.6 idea rather than The development of understanding of genetics and evolution / Resistant bacteria.

Answer

The correct option is Correct contrast: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Resistant bacteria because students must explain that resistant strains survive antibiotic treatment and reproduce.. It is the only option that keeps DNA vs genes separate and answers the approved learning objective in Resistant bacteria.

Explanation

The correct option is Correct contrast: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Resistant bacteria because students must explain that resistant strains survive antibiotic treatment and reproduce.. Correct contrast: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Resistant bacteria because students must explain that resistant strains survive antibiotic treatment and reproduce. is correct because DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. The learning objective says students must explain that resistant strains survive antibiotic treatment and reproduce, so the answer must stay inside Resistant bacteria. The alternative options are wrong because they either calling a gene a whole chromosome., explaining protein coding without naming the gene as the relevant section of dna., or drift away from when asking about genes, test a section of dna, protein coding, alleles, or inherited characteristics..

Common mistake
