Question

d 8. this question has two parts. first, answer part a. then, answer part b.
part a
what is the best way to explain the formation of a protein?
select two correct answers.
proteins are created from extremely long and intricate sections of chromosomes.
in dna, a series of 3 nitrogenous bases make up codons, which create amino acids.
chromosomes join in pairs to form a karyotype map, which code for proteins.
amino acids together make up polypeptides, which fold to make proteins.

Explanation:

Proteins are made from amino acids. Amino acids link to form polypeptides, which then fold into proteins. In DNA, codons (sets of 3 nitrogenous bases) code for amino acids. Chromosomes are structures containing DNA, and a karyotype is a picture of chromosomes, not directly how proteins are formed.

Answer:

A. Amino acids together make up polypeptides, which fold to make proteins.
C. In DNA, a series of 3 nitrogenous bases make up codons, which create amino acids.
