Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the central dogma of biology?
A
RNA makes DNA and DNA makes a protein
B
DNA makes proteins and proteins make RNA
C
DNA makes RNA and RNA makes a protein
D
RNA makes a protein and DNA
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The central dogma of molecular biology is a theory stating that genetic information flows only in one direction, from DNA, to RNA, to protein, or RNA directly to protein.

Detailed explanation-2: -The central dogma of molecular biology suggests that the primary role of RNA is to convert the information stored in DNA into proteins.

Detailed explanation-3: -The central dogma states that the pattern of information that occurs most frequently in our cells is: From existing DNA to make new DNA (DNA replication?) From DNA to make new RNA (transcription) From RNA to make new proteins (translation).

Detailed explanation-4: -The central dogma of molecular biology states that DNA contains instructions for making a protein, which are copied by RNA. RNA then uses the instructions to make a protein. In short: DNA
