Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The relationship between genetic information carried in DNA and proteins. The complete set of information in an organism’s DNA is called its genome, and it carries the information for all the proteins the organism will ever synthesize. (The term genome is also used to describe the DNA that carries this information.)

Detailed explanation-2: -What does DNA do? DNA contains the instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. To carry out these functions, DNA sequences must be converted into messages that can be used to produce proteins, which are the complex molecules that do most of the work in our bodies.

Detailed explanation-3: -DNA is important in terms of heredity. It packs in all the genetic information and passes it on to the next generation. The basis for this lies in the fact that DNA makes genes and genes make chromosomes. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes – a total of 46 chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Which of the following best describes the role of DNA? It transmits genetic information to the next generation.
