(a) For every hormone there is a gene. 
(b) For every protein there is a gene. 
(c) For the production of every enzyme there is a gene. 
(d) For every molecule of fat there is a gene 

Answers (1)

The incorrect statement is (d) as fat molecules are not related to genes. Fats are long-chain fatty acids. Statements (a), (b), (c) are correct.

  • Proteins help in the formation of hormones and enzymes.
  • The formation of any particular protein is controlled by a specific gene.
  • Genes contain instructions for making proteins in a cell.
  • The proteins that are produced could be enzymes that catalyze biochemical reactions.
  • The enzyme is also in charge of the hormone production process.
  •  Fat formation does not depend upon genes.  

Therefore, option (d) is the correct answer.
