Which of the Following is Correct Regarding the Flow of Genetic

Question

Which of the following is correct regarding the flow of genetic information?
A)replication uses a DNA template to form RNA which serves as the new template for DNA synthesis
B)transcription produces RNA from a DNA template using the enzyme RNA polymerase
C)translation uses mRNA as a template,rRNA to carry amino acids,and tRNA to catalyze the synthesis of proteins
D)during both replication and transcription,the products are double stranded polynucleotides
E)none of the above

Accepted Answer

Transcription is the process of copying DNA sequence into RNA sequence using the enzyme RNA polymerase. Replication, on the other hand, uses a DNA template to form a new DNA strand. Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from RNA sequence using ribosomes, tRNA, and amino acids. Option D is incorrect because transcription produces single-stranded RNA while replication produces double-stranded DNA. Option A is incorrect because it describes reverse transcription, which is not a universal process.
