Protein Synthesis — Quiz

Question 5 • Biology

Which nucleic acid moves the code for protein synthesis from the nucleus to the ribosomes?

Answer
A
tRNA
B
mRNA
C
rRNA
D
dRNA

Explanation

Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries a copy of the genetic instructions from DNA in the nucleus to ribosomes, where proteins are made. Transfer RNA (tRNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome, while ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is part of the ribosome. Therefore, the correct choice is mRNA.
