Question

Which flowchart accurately explains how genes are passed to offspring?

A.


DNA→ RNA→ protein→ trait


B.


RNA→ protein→ DNA→ trait


C.


RNA→ DNA→ trait→ protein


D.


DNA→ protein→ RNA→ trait

Answer 1

The answer is A. DNA→ RNA→ protein→ trait.

According to the central dogma of molecular biology, DNA codes for RNA which codes for proteins.
The sequence of DNA is transcribed into RNA during the process of transcription. RNA is later translated into proteins during the process of translation. The protein is responsible for some trait.
