Q.The central dogma of molecular genetics states that the genetic information flows from (NEET Phase – II)

Step 1. DNA stores the genetic information of the cell; the first step in expressing that information is transcription, in which an RNA copy (specifically messenger RNA) is synthesised using one strand of DNA as the template.

Step 2. The resulting messenger RNA then carries that genetic information to the ribosome, where it is decoded -- a process called translation -- to assemble a specific sequence of amino acids into a protein. …

Recall the two named steps of gene expression in order -- transcription (DNA to RNA) followed by translation (RNA to prot …

• Confusing the direction of information flow, e.g. thinking proteins encode DNA rather than the reverse -- the central dogma flows stric …
