Question

Lamarck proposed the Theory of Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics in 1801 which states that if an organism changes during life in order to adapt to its environment, those changes are passed on to its offspring. How does the Central Dogma indicate that this theory is incorrect?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Dogma describes the two-step process, transcription, and translation. By using that procedure, we ensure that the glean a change into proteins. The RNA is simply a copy of a small part of DNA.

The central dogma suggests that DNA contains the information needed to make all of our proteins, and that RNA is a messenger that carries this information to the ribosomes.

In transcription, the information in the DNA of every cell is converted into small, portable RNA messages.

During translation, these messages travel from where the DNA is in the cell nucleus to the ribosomes where they are ‘read’ to make specific proteins.
