Question

18/23 which part of the dna is responsible for the direct coding of specific traits in an organism? the # of hydrogen bonds the # of carbons in the dna the sequence of phosphates along each dna strand the sequence of nucleotide bases in the dna molecule

Explanation:

DNA contains genetic information. The sequence of nucleotide bases (adenine - A, thymine - T, guanine - G, cytosine - C) in DNA forms the genetic code that directly codes for specific traits by determining the sequence of amino - acids in proteins during transcription and translation processes. Hydrogen bonds hold the two strands of DNA together, the number of carbons is part of the structure of nucleotides but not the coding part, and the sequence of phosphates is part of the DNA backbone but does not code for traits.

Answer:

the sequence of nucleotide bases in the DNA
