Variation and evolution
Question
- A. Correct cause and effect: A gene is the functional coding section; a chromosome is the larger DNA package. This matches Cloning (biology only) because students must describe adult cell cloning by removing the nucleus from an unfertilised egg cell.
- B. Reversed cause: Saying a chromosome codes for one protein instead of identifying a gene. This would blur Genes vs chromosomes instead of testing Cloning (biology only).
- C. Missing link: Using gene and chromosome as the same scale of structure. This misses the objective focus on describe adult cell cloning by removing the nucleus from an unfertilised egg cell.
- D. Different process: It moves into a neighbouring Unit 4.6 idea rather than Variation and evolution / Cloning (biology only).
Answer
The correct option is Correct cause and effect: A gene is the functional coding section; a chromosome is the larger DNA package. This matches Cloning (biology only) because students must describe adult cell cloning by removing the nucleus from an unfertilised egg cell.. It is the only option that keeps Genes vs chromosomes separate and answers the approved learning objective in Cloning (biology only).
Explanation
The correct option is Correct cause and effect: A gene is the functional coding section; a chromosome is the larger DNA package. This matches Cloning (biology only) because students must describe adult cell cloning by removing the nucleus from an unfertilised egg cell.. Correct cause and effect: A gene is the functional coding section; a chromosome is the larger DNA package. This matches Cloning (biology only) because students must describe adult cell cloning by removing the nucleus from an unfertilised egg cell. is correct because A gene is the functional coding section; a chromosome is the larger DNA package. The learning objective says students must describe adult cell cloning by removing the nucleus from an unfertilised egg cell, so the answer must stay inside Cloning (biology only). The alternative options are wrong because they either saying a chromosome codes for one protein instead of identifying a gene., using gene and chromosome as the same scale of structure., or drift away from question stems about genes must test coding sections, alleles, or inherited characteristics..
Common mistake
Cloning (biology only) common mistake 1
Giving a vague answer instead of directly addressing: Describe adult cell cloning by removing the nucleus from an unfertilised egg cell..
Answer by clearly explaining how to describe adult cell cloning by removing the nucleus from an unfertilised egg cell..
