Taking into account an important lesson of the 2003 project (that a gene is affected by interactions with the protein products of other genes), research has begun to consider the human proteome instead of just the genome. 31 SAT PRACTICE TEST #5 ANSWER EXPLANATIONS SAT ANSWER EXPLANATIONS n READING AND WRITING: MODULE 2 Choice A is incorrect because “in other words” illogically signals that the information in this sentence is a paraphrase or restatement of the previous information about the 2003 Human Genome Project. Instead, this sentence states a result or consequence of that information. Choice B is incorrect because “that said” illogically signals that the information in this sentence qualifies or contrasts with the previous information about the 2003 Human Genome Project. Instead, this sentence states a result or consequence of that information. Choice C is incorrect because “for example” illogically signals that this sentence provides an example supporting the previous information about the 2003 Human Genome Project. Instead, this sentence states a result or consequence of that information.</p>","correct_answer":["D"],"has_media":false,"has_mathml":false,"has_table":false,"source_created_at":null,"source_updated_at":null,"options":[{"label":"A","content_html":"<p>In other words,</p>","ord":0},{"label":"B","content_html":"<p>That said,</p>","ord":1},{"label":"C","content_html":"<p>For example,</p>","ord":2},{"label":"D","content_html":"<p>Accordingly,</p>","ord":3}],"attribution":{"source_id":"cb_practice_pdf","source_name":"College Board full-length SAT practice tests (PDF)","rights_holder":"College Board","canonical_url":"https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/practice/practice-tests/paper","retrieved_from":"https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/practice/practice-tests/paper","attribution":"Full-length SAT practice tests 4–11 © College Board, published free at satsuite.collegeboard.org.","disclaimer":"Extracted from PDF layout: equations, figures and tables do not survive intact.
