Vedclass · Answer

(A) Genes are segments of $DNA$ that contain the instructions for synthesizing specific proteins. Since enzymes are biological catalysts made of proteins,their production is also controlled by genes. Many hormones are also proteinaceous in nature (peptide hormones),and their synthesis is directed by genes. However,fats (lipids) are not synthesized directly from genetic templates in the same way proteins are. Fats are synthesized through complex metabolic pathways involving various enzymes,which are themselves gene products,but there is no 'one gene-one fat molecule' relationship. Therefore,the statement 'for every molecule of fat there is a gene' is incorrect.
