Question 49 • Biology

Kai looks at a photo of herself with her parents. She notices that, while her features are similar to her parents’ features, they do not appear to be identical. Which explains why this is the case?

Answer
A
Their DNA is made of different codon sequences.
B
Their DNA is made of four different bases.
C
Kai inherited different amino acids from either of her parents.
D
Kai inherited more proteins from one parent than the other.

Explanation

Kai resembles her parents because she inherited DNA from both of them, but she does not inherit identical DNA. Different sequences of DNA bases can produce different codon sequences, which can lead to differences in proteins and features. The bases themselves are the same four types in humans, so C does not explain why their features differ.
