Exam-style question
Try this first
Which option best identifies the exact concept boundary for The development of understanding of genetics and evolution, Theory of evolution (biology only): students must state that a study of creationism is not required.
- A.Definition boundary: 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.Scale confusion: Calling a gene a whole chromosome. This would blur DNA vs genes instead of testing Theory of evolution (biology only).
- C.Process confusion: 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.Evidence confusion: It moves into a neighbouring Unit 4.6 idea rather than The development of understanding of genetics and evolution / Theory of evolution (biology only).
