The right answer is B) It was released as carbon dioxide and water.

Lipids are a source of energy for the body, it provides the necessary energy to perform its functions. During the consumption of lipids, these are degraded in the form of CO2 and H2O (just like the consumption of glucose since the lipids are degraded into acetyl CoA and enter the Krebs cycle).

Which of the following is an important exception to the central dogma of molecular biology? a) Proteins are responsible for most
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

b: many genes code for RNAs that function directly in the cell

Explanation:

<em>The central dogma</em> theory describes the basic framework for gene expression in living organisms. Genetic information from DNA is encoded or transcribed as RNA which then becomes translated as proteins.

The processes that take place for gene to be successfully expressed are;

  • Replication
  • Transcription
  • Translation

<em>Replication</em> is a process whereby DNA makes a copy of itself to be distributed in daughter cells during cell division.

<em>Transcription</em> is the process whereby genetic information in DNA is encoded as RNAs. The RNAs are short-lived as they are quickly utilized in protein synthesis or <em>translation </em>process.

Hence, the RNAs do not function directly in the cells but mere intermediaries in the synthesis of proteins.

<em>The correct option is b.</em>
