Variation and evolution
Question
- A. Definition boundary: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Cloning (biology only) because students must explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell.
- B. Scale confusion: Calling a gene a whole chromosome. This would blur DNA vs genes instead of testing Cloning (biology only).
- C. Process confusion: Explaining protein coding without naming the gene as the relevant section of DNA. This misses the objective focus on explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell.
- D. Evidence confusion: It moves into a neighbouring Unit 4.6 idea rather than Variation and evolution / Cloning (biology only).
Answer
The correct option is Definition boundary: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Cloning (biology only) because students must explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell.. It is the only option that keeps DNA vs genes separate and answers the approved learning objective in Cloning (biology only).
Explanation
The correct option is Definition boundary: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Cloning (biology only) because students must explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell.. Definition boundary: DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. This matches Cloning (biology only) because students must explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell. is correct because DNA can contain many genes; a gene has a specific coding role. The learning objective says students must explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell, so the answer must stay inside Cloning (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
Cloning (biology only) common mistake 1
Giving a vague answer instead of directly addressing: Explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell..
Answer by clearly explaining how to explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell..
