Observe the following table for the correct answers related to the DNA:

False statements DNA True statements Proteins can be injected into cells to encode damaged DNA sequences Doctors analyze DNA sequences to screen for diseases Each person inherits DNA from two parents. Scientists use DNA sequences to determine guilt in legal cases. DNA encodes proteins.

The DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic material which is transferred (inherited) from both parents to the child, so the DNA is helpful to find the real parent of a child in illegeal cases. The functional DNA encodes proteins through a mediator called mRNA (messenger - Ribonucleic acid). A Scientist or a doctor screen the DNA to detect the disease. The gene sequencing can be done by using a known DNA marker.
