Question

Which of the following is an INCORRECT statement regarding genetic material?

• A. Genes are made up of DNA.
• B. Chromatin is made up of DNA.
• C. Histones are proteins to which chromatin is bound.
• D. DNA is made up of genes.

Answer 1

The correct option is D DNA is made up of genes.

In biology, a gene is a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function. During gene expression, the DNA is first copied into RNA. The RNA can be directly functional or be the intermediate template for a protein that performs a function. However, the inverse is incorrect.

So the correct option is option D.
