Genetic Code

Question 7 • [HSBIO] Biology, Sem 1 (26-27)

What is the role of RNA within the cell?

Answer
A
RNA contains instructions that code for protein synthesis.
B
RNA moves instructions for protein synthesis from the nucleus to ribosomes.
C
RNA is the structural unit that makes up DNA.

Explanation

Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries a copy of genetic instructions from the nucleus to ribosomes, where proteins are made. That transport role is described by choice B. RNA is not the structural unit that makes up DNA, and the original genetic instructions are stored in DNA.
