Larson · Answer 1

Answer: Proteins make up Gene 1.

Explanation:

Biological macromolecules are large polymers that comprises of smaller units called monomers which are linked by bond thereby forming structures like protein, DNA or RNA, carbohydrates, lipids.

Amino acids are linked together to form polypeptide chain and protein is composed of one or more polypeptide chain.

Genes code for proteins. Along the DNA strand is genes which have specific regions whose sequence carry genetic code for making protein.

Ezra Raymond · Answer 2

Answer: Proteins

Explanation:

The gene 1 will produce protein which is a type of macro molecule. Each and every gene of the body express it in the form of proteins.

The enzymes that is produced by the gene are also in the form of proteins in the body.

Each and every protein produced in the body is the expression of gene. The proteins are known as building blocks of the body which is a very essential component of the body and its vital functions.
