Question

The diagram shows an important concept in the genetic implication of DNA. Fill in the blanks A to C.

• A. A-transcription B-replication C-James Watson
• B. A-translation B-transcription C-Erevin Chargaff
• C. A-transcription B-translation C-Francis Crick
• D. A-translation B-extension C-Rosalind Franklin

Answer 1

The correct option is C A-transcription B-translation C-Francis Crick

In the year 1958, Francis crick has proposed a theory called 'Central dogma of Molecular biology'. This explains the flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA and then to the functional protein.

The synthesis of new copy of DNA molecule is called as 'Replication'. The synthesis of RNA from DNA is called as 'Transcription'.

While the synthesis of proteins from mRNA is called as 'Translation'.

So, the correct answer is 'A-transcription B-translation C-Francis Crick'
