Question

If changes in a genes' DNA sequence can change proteins, which of the following statements is false?

A. Phenotypes may be directly affected.
B. There is a molecular basis for genetic disorders.
C. Amino acid sequences would be altered.
D. Genetic disorders cannot be caused by changes in just one individual gene.

Answer 1

The false statement is

D. Genetic disorders cannot be caused by changes in just one individual gene.

Step-by-step explanation:

Genetic disorders are caused by changes in DNA sequence due to mutation which will result in protein alteration which causes different disorders

Not only in gene, a change in single nucleotide or deletion of single nucleotide in the DNA sequence can cause a genetic disorder.
