in dna ,what determines the trait of an organism?

Question

i think is the sequence of nitroen bases ???? am i right

Answer 1

It depends on the trait.

Just remember - DNA makes RNA which makes proteins. THAT IS ALL.

If we say, 'This gene gives you blue eyes', what we really mean is, 'This gene produces a protein, that when released into your system causes your eyes to appear blue for one reason or another'. There are so many different ways that proteins might do things - change the rate at which other genes work, affect other proteins and change how they work, interact with chemicals, or even being directly observable from the outside - that unless you're talking about a very specific gene it's hard to say exactly which of these are happening.

But if you're asking exactly what in the DNA causes it to produce one protein over another, the answer is the sequence of nucleotides.

Answer 2

The DNA consists of the series contained in certainly one of those nucleotides that form the proteins. The proteins form the structural and clever properties that determines the trait of an organism

Answer 3

Yes. DNA is composed of fourn nitrogenous bases including thymine, guanine, cytosine, and adenine. These bases code for RNA molecules, which code for certain amino acids, which comprise protiens and make up phenotypes, or traits.

However, keep in mind that all DNA does not code for a trait. There are portions of the chromosome that do not code for anything and are referred to as microsatellites.

Answer 4

it's the unique sequence of nucleotide bases....which in turn helps code the unique polypeptides of the organism (aka traits)
