C.) DNA and RNA are proteins.
D.) Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
E.) Proteins affect the structures and functions of living things.
F.) The shape and the function of a protein are not related.
<u>Correct Option:</u>
The statements which describe proteins are as follows:
A.) Proteins are created from the code in DNA.
D.) Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
E.) Proteins affect the structures and functions of living things.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Transcription is the method of RNA molecule creation from DNA. The translation is the mechanism by which the protein material is produced from the RNA molecule. Originally, protein forming data is contained in the DNA in the context of nucleotide code. The mechanism of translation happens in the cytoplasm and not at the nucleus.
DNA and RNA contain nucleotides and not proteins. Proteins are the alpha amino acid polymers, which serve as the building block of the protein. An individual's phenotype relies on the composition of the protein, and protein determines the composition and phenotypic expression in living organisms. 3D structure of proteins and their work are realized with one another.
Cellular respiration is a metabolic process that converts glucose and utilizes oxygen to generate the energy needed to carry out system processes, specifically ATP. The by-products produced from the process includes water and carbon dioxide.

Answer:
0.2404
Explanation:
The genes R/r and E/e are linked and there is 4% recombination between them.
<u>The possible genotypes and phenotypes are:</u>
- RR or Rr: Rh+ blood type
- rr: Rh- blood type
- EE or Ee: elliptocytosis
- ee: normal red blood cells
Tom and Terri each have elliptocytosis (they are E_), and each is Rh+ (they are R_).
Tom's mother has elliptocytosis (E_) and is Rh- (rr), so she has the genotype Er/_r. His father is healthy (ee) and has Rh+ (R_), so he has the genotype eR/e_. Tom must have inherited his E allele from his mother and his R allele from his father, so he has the genotype eR/Er.
Terri's father is Rh+ (R_) and has elliptocytosis (E_), while Terri's mother is Rh- (rr) and is healthy (ee) with the genotype er/er. Terry could only receive the chromosome <em>er </em>from her mother, and because she is heterozygous for both genes the dominant alleles were both received from her father. Terri's genotype is ER/er.
The frequency of recombination is 4%, so 4% of the produced gametes will be recombinant. There are two possible recombinant gametes, so each will appear 2% of the times (a frequency of 0.02).

<u>Tom will produce the following gametes:</u>
- eR, parental (0.48)
- Er, parental (0.48)
- er, recombinant (0.02)
- ER (recombinant (0.02)
<u>Terri will produce the following gametes:</u>
- ER, parental (0.48)
- er, parental (0.48)
- Er, recombinant (0.02)
- eR, recombinant (0.02)
A child Rh- with elliptocytosis has the genotype rrE_. This can happen from the independent combination of the following gametes from Tom and Terri respectively:
- Er (0.48) × er (0.48) = 0.2304 Er/er
- Er (0.48) × Er (0.02) = 0.0096 Er/Er
- er (0.02) × Er (0.02) = 0.0004 er/Er
And the total probability of having a rrE_ child will be 0.2304 + 0.0096 + 0.0004 = 0.2404
The answer is B.
In general, the best way to find scientific answers to questions is to do research. Sometimes, tests aren't always exactly repeatable, and especially not in a scenario like the one given.
