Solution
The correct option is D Both A and B
RNA was the first genetic material it is now proved with enough evidence because many of the life processes like metabolism and translation revolve around RNA. It was used as a genetic material as well as a catalyst because there is some important chemical reaction in the system that uses ribozymes as the enzymes and not protein enzymes.But RNA as a catalyst was very unstable and reactive and therefore DNA evolved from RNA.So, the correct option is 'Both A and B'
