You are in a laboratory attempting to identify a genetic defect responsible for a disease. You believe you have located the gene that results in a faulty protein—but you aren't sure! How could you be sure you have located a section of DNA that encodes for a protein?

Allow the DNA to be transcribed to RNA and see what protein results.

Explanation:

the answer will be a) proteins i believe

the relative atomic mass of an element is the mass of one atom of that element, relative to 1/12th of the mass of a  1212c atom. to convert to an absolute mass in kg, it is necessary to multiply by  1.661×10−271.661×10−27.

the relative atomic mass is roughly equal to the number of neutrons, plus the number of protons, in the nucleus of the atom.

for elements with more than one stable isotope (different types of nucleus with different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons), the quoted mass is usually the average mass, weighted by the relative abundance of the different isotopes.
