Vedclass · Answer

(D) Teminism,also known as reverse transcription,refers to the synthesis of $DNA$ from an $RNA$ template. This process is catalyzed by the enzyme reverse transcriptase ($RNA$-dependent $DNA$ polymerase),not $DNA$-dependent $RNA$ polymerase.Since Teminism involves the flow of information from $RNA$ to $DNA$,it contradicts the central dogma's concept of unidirectional flow $(DNA \rightarrow RNA \rightarrow Protein)$.Therefore,the Assertion is incorrect because Teminism represents a deviation from the standard unidirectional flow,and the Reason is incorrect because it cites the wrong enzyme.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(a)$ Lactose	$(i)$ Functional part of the gene
$(b)$ Release factor	$(ii)$ Inducer of $Lac$ operon
$(c)$ Histone	$(iii)$ Packaging of $\text{DNA}$
$(d)$ Exon	$(iv)$ Termination of translation

List $I$	List $II$
$A$. Frederick Griffith	$I$. Genetic code
$B$. Francois Jacob and Jacques Monod	$II$. Semi-conservative mode of $DNA$ replication
$C$. Har Gobind Khorana	$III$. Transformation
$D$. Meselson and Stahl	$IV$. $Lac$ operon

$A$: Teminism is the unidirectional flow of information.
$R$: It requires $DNA$-dependent $RNA$ polymerase enzyme.
