Question 1 Report
A cell follows the coded instructions held in one of its genes and builds a specific large molecule as the product. Which type of molecule is built?
A gene is a length of DNA that codes for a protein, so when a cell follows the instructions in a gene, the large molecule it builds is a protein. It does not build a single base, a second gene, or a chromosome; those are not the product coded for by a gene. The core idea is that genes code for proteins, so the product made from a gene is a protein.
