Question

the connection that exists between genes and hereditary traits is based on using the information encoded in genes to synthesize
multiple choice
histones.
nucleotides.
proteins.
complementary bases.
codons.

Explanation:

Genes contain genetic information. Through transcription and translation, this information is used to synthesize proteins. Proteins play crucial roles in determining hereditary traits such as physical characteristics and physiological functions. Histones are proteins related to DNA - packaging, nucleotides are the building - blocks of DNA and RNA, complementary bases are involved in DNA structure and replication, and codons are triplets of nucleotides in mRNA. But the key connection to hereditary traits from gene - encoded information is via proteins.

Answer:

proteins.
