The development of understanding of genetics and evolution
Question
- A. Correct contrast: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Theory of evolution (biology only) because students must state that a study of creationism is not required.
- B. Reversed contrast: Calling a gene a whole chromosome. This would blur DNA vs genes instead of testing Theory of evolution (biology only).
- C. Over-broad contrast: Explaining protein coding without naming the gene as the relevant section of DNA. This misses the objective focus on state that a study of creationism is not required.
- D. Unrelated contrast: It moves into a neighbouring Unit 4.6 idea rather than The development of understanding of genetics and evolution / Theory of evolution (biology only).
Answer
The correct option is Correct contrast: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Theory of evolution (biology only) because students must state that a study of creationism is not required.. It is the only option that keeps DNA vs genes separate and answers the approved learning objective in Theory of evolution (biology only).
Explanation
The correct option is Correct contrast: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Theory of evolution (biology only) because students must state that a study of creationism is not required.. Correct contrast: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Theory of evolution (biology only) because students must state that a study of creationism is not required. is correct because DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. The learning objective says students must state that a study of creationism is not required, so the answer must stay inside Theory of evolution (biology only). 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
Theory of evolution (biology only) common mistake 1
Giving a vague answer instead of directly addressing: State that a study of creationism is not required..
Answer by clearly explaining how to state that a study of creationism is not required..
