A chromosome contains the genes for the proteins needed fo ra specific metabolic pathway is it true or false?

False, I Suppose One Gets Into Trouble If They Imagine a Single Chromosome as the Sum Total of All Genetic Material. E. g., if your Are Referring to a Bacteria (No Phage Infection, No Plasmid), the Statement Is True.A chromosome contains the genes for the proteins needed fo ra specific metabolic pathway is it true or false?
False. Chromosomes contain the genes needed for polypeptides, not necessarily proteins. Some proteins actually have subunits encoded on different chromosomes! And even when the proteins are encoded by genes on one chromosome, it doesn't mean all of the components of all of the proteins in a metabolic pathway are encoded by a single chromosome.A chromosome contains the genes for the proteins needed fo ra specific metabolic pathway is it true or false?
not sure but I think it's yes since chromosomes carry genes for receptors ( kinds of passage ways ) that initiate entrance of glucose to inside the cell with the help of insulin.


I am not sure 100% , I just wanted to help.
Not completely true. A metabolic pathway may require many enzymes, but the genes for those enzymes are not necessarily on the same chromosome.
True - the enzymes (protein) are coded by DNA in the genes on chromosomes.
