Protein Synthesis

Question 5 • HVA 26-27 IM Biology A

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

Answer
A
dRNA
B
tRNA
C
rRNA
D
mRNA

Explanation

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