there are 20 amino acids for protein and only 4 bases for DNA. makes sense they would think that the 20 amino acids would provide more variety. also they didnt know about transcription translation, etc

Why do scientists study proteins to find evidence for evolution?
Proteins reflect DNA sequences, so scientists study proteins to look for genetic similarities and differences in organisms.
What materials does the genetic code produce?
What most people think about as genes produce proteins. Scientists now know that some of the genetic code produces segments of RNA that regulate the protein-producing genes.
Cells store genetic information in DNA. That genetic information is used to synthesize .?
cells store genetic information in dna. that genetic information is used to synthesize
The genetic code directs the synthesis of hundreds of different kinds of?
proteins
Why is it important for scientists to be able to remove DNA from and organism?
It's important for scientists to be able to remove DNA from an organism because it'll help scientists identify genetic disorders or diseases.
Why do scientists study proteins to find evidence for evolution?
Proteins reflect DNA sequences, so scientists study proteins to look for genetic similarities and differences in organisms.
What kind of molecules did scientist first believe genetic information?
Proteins
What kind of molecules did scientist first believe carried genetic?
Proteins
Which is the process of making changes in the DNA code of living organims scientists have produced bacteria that can make human proteins?
genetic engineering
What materials does the genetic code produce?
What most people think about as genes produce proteins. Scientists now know that some of the genetic code produces segments of RNA that regulate the protein-producing genes.
Is genetic codes passed on by proteins?
No. The genetic code is passed on through the DNA.
What continent scientists believe early modern humans came from?
Scientists believe early modern humans originated in Africa. This theory is supported by fossil and genetic evidence that suggests humans evolved in Africa before migrating to other continents.
Why do scientists think it is valuable to link genetic codes with medical histories?
Scientists think it is valuable to link genetic codes with medical histories for diagnosis and management of genetic disorders.
Why were proteins and DNA considered to carry the genetic information?
BEcause proteins can be quite complex! (;
The Hershey-Chase experiment disproved which of these molecule groups as the physical carrier of inheritance?
The Hershey-Chase experiment disproved proteins as the physical carrier of inheritance and instead provided evidence that DNA is the primary molecule responsible for transmitting genetic information.
What genetic disorder results in protein abnormalities?
All genetic disorders affect the structure of proteins.
What is the genetic meterial that is tightly wrapped around proteins called?
D N A is the genetic meterial.
