The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of matching the phenomenon with its correct explanation, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Phenomena and Their Explanations**: - We have four options to consider: Central Dogma, Reverse Transcription, Transcription, and RNA Silencing. 2. **Evaluate the First Option: Central Dogma**: - The explanation states that "RNA is being synthesized from RNA and DNA from protein." - This is incorrect. The Central Dogma of molecular biology states that genetic information flows from DNA to RNA to protein. Therefore, this option does not match correctly. 3. **Evaluate the Second Option: Reverse Transcription**: - The explanation states that it is a polymerase chain reaction where RNA is used to produce DNA. - While reverse transcription does involve synthesizing DNA from RNA, it is not a polymerase chain reaction (PCR). PCR is a different technique that amplifies DNA. Thus, this option is also incorrect. 4. **Evaluate the Third Option: Transcription**: - The explanation states that transcription is the copying of a segment of DNA into RNA. - This is correct; transcription is indeed the process where DNA is transcribed into RNA. However, it does not mention anything about RNA or protein synthesis, making this option partially correct but not matching a phenomenon with its explanation. 5. **Evaluate the Fourth Option: RNA Silencing**: - The explanation states that RNA silencing (or RNA interference) is a biological response to double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). - This is accurate; RNA silencing involves the use of dsRNA to trigger gene silencing and antiviral responses. This explanation correctly matches the phenomenon. 6. **Conclusion**: - The only correct match is the fourth option: RNA Silencing with its explanation regarding the role of dsRNA. ### Final Answer: The correct match is **RNA Silencing** with the explanation that it is a conserved biological response to double-stranded RNA. ---
