Which of the following statements regarding DNA is false? Features a beta glycosidic bond between deoxyribose and nucleobase. Phosphoester bonds in DNA are extremely stable to non-catalytic hydrolysis. In B DNA the parallel stacks of nucleobases are separated by about 3.5 A A DNA is formed from single strands of RNA and DNA DNA contains uridine, adenosine, guanosine, and cytidine as nucleobases
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a genetic material that transfers genetic information from one organism to its offspring. DNA is located in the nucleus and mitochondria. The information in DNA is stored as code (made up of A, G, C, T). 99% of bases are the same. The order of bases determines the individuality.
