Question

How does an allele cause a trait in an organism? O A. The allele is a code to form a type of gene. O B. The allele is used during transcription to make DNA. O C. The allele is used by proteins to create chromosomes. O D. The allele causes a certain type of protein to form. Is d right?

Answer 1

The correct answer is option D. The allele causes a certain type of protein to form

Step-by-step explanation:

An allele does not form a type of gene but it is a variant or form of a gene itself that consists sequence of codes for a gene. Gene has two types of variants known as alleles in humans thus, humans called diploid organisms. Each gene has a certain number of an allele that leads to the specific type of protein by the process of gene expression.

Thus, the correct answer is - option D.
