A complex protein-rich cell shelters and supports the DNA genetic code,and the code is the blueprint for the cell proteins; thus is set the "chicken-or-the-egg" dilemma of which came first.This is probably solved by the discovery that
A)polypeptides and RNA could have evolved simultaneously.
B)reverse transcriptase can convert RNA back into DNA.
C)all DNA and protein can be distributed evenly inside and outside the nucleus.
D)some proteins are simply assemblages of guanine,cytosine,thymine,and adenine.
E)viruses can give rise to all of the cell molecules.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The discovery that polypeptides and RNA could have evolved simultaneously suggests that both DNA and proteins could have arisen together, resolving the chicken-or-the-egg dilemma. Reverse transcriptase converting RNA back into DNA, the distribution of DNA and protein within the cell, protein assemblages of nucleotides, and viruses giving rise to all cell molecules are not directly related to solving the dilemma between DNA and protein evolution.
