What is the "central dogma" of biology?
Correct Answer: B — DNA is used to make RNA, which, in turn, is used to make protein
The central dogma states what b option mentions. The DNA sequence in genes is copied into an mRNA. Ribosomes then read the information in this RNA and use it to create proteins. This process is known as translation i.e., the ribosome "translates" the genetic information from RNA into proteins.
