Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the universal genetic material in all cellular organisms (prokaryotes and eukaryotes) and many viruses, storing hereditary information. Some viruses, known as RNA viruses (like HIV, influenza, and TMV), use RNA (ribonucleic acid) as their genetic material instead of DNA. Proteins are the products of gene expression and perform various cellular functions, but they are never the genetic material in any cell or virus. Thus, statements 1 and 2 are correct.
