NEET 2016 Phase 2 · ChemistryNucleic acidsPrevious Year Question

The central dogma of molecular genetics states that the genetic information flows from:

Answer: (C) DNA RNA Proteins. \textbf{Answer:} (C) Genetic information flows DNA RNA Proteins.

  1. A.Amino acids Proteins DNA
  2. B.DNA Carbohydrates Proteins
  3. C.DNA RNA Proteins
  4. D.DNA RNA Carbohydrates

Correct Answer

(C) DNA RNA Proteins

Solution & Explanation

\textbf{Answer:} (C) Genetic information flows DNA RNA Proteins. \textbf{Solution:} The central dogma of molecular biology states that DNA is transcribed into RNA, and RNA is then translated into proteins. Thus the directional flow of genetic information is DNA RNA Proteins, matching option C. Carbohydrates are not carriers of genetic information, ruling out the other choices.
