Question

this model shows the components involved in the inheritance of traits. select three statements that accurately match the letter provided in the model with the information it depicts. a a is the dna that makes up a chromosome. b b is the nucleus of the cell where dna is found. c c is the nucleus of the cell where dna is found. d d is a chromosome, found in the nucleus. e d is a gene, made of dna. f e is a gene, made of dna and found on chromosomes. g e is a chromosome, containing genes.

Explanation:

1. Analyze Option A: Chromosomes are made of DNA (and proteins), so if A is labeled as the DNA making up a chromosome, this can be correct.
2. Analyze Option B: The nucleus (B) is where DNA is stored in eukaryotic cells, so this is correct.
3. Analyze Option F: Genes (E) are segments of DNA on chromosomes, so stating E is a gene made of DNA and found on chromosomes is correct.
4. Eliminate Option C: If B is the nucleus, C can't be.
5. Eliminate Option D: If A is DNA making up a chromosome, D (labeled as chromosome) would be incorrect as per that.
6. Eliminate Option E: If E is a gene, D being a gene is incorrect.
7. Eliminate Option G: E is a gene, not a chromosome.

Answer:

A. A is the DNA that makes up a chromosome.
B. B is the nucleus of the cell where DNA is found.
F. E is a gene, made of DNA and found on chromosomes.
