What does a gene carry?

  1. The characteristic itself, for example tallness
  2. The coded instructions for making a proteinПравильный ответ
  3. A finished protein, ready for use
  4. A miniature copy of the whole organism

Объяснение

A gene holds a coded sequence telling the cell how to build one protein, and the proteins built that way go on to affect a characteristic. Treating the gene as the characteristic skips that step, because tallness is an outcome of proteins at work rather than something written directly into the DNA.
