Which of the Following is a Phenotypic Function That Genetic

Question

Which of the following is a phenotypic function that genetic material must be able to perform?
A) Replication
B) Mutation
C) Adaptation
D) Gene expression
E) Translation

Accepted Answer

Gene expression is the phenotypic function that genetic material must be able to perform as it is responsible for the production of proteins that determine observable traits. Replication, mutation, adaptation, and translation are all processes involved in the function of genetic material, but not necessarily for its phenotypic expression.
