Question

Respected teacher does the replication of rna indirectly lead to replication of DNA(my question is wrt interkinesis)?If not does it mean that rna and DNA in the same cell have separate existence??

Solution

RNA never get replicated , it get synthesized from DNA. I was talking about nucleotides will not be synthesized for replication of DNA like thymine (it is there only in DNA).
