Which carries the code for protein synthesis from the cell nucleus to the cytoplasm?

Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries a copy of the genetic instructions from DNA in the nucleus to the cytoplasm, where ribosomes use them to build a protein. tRNA brings amino acids to the ribosome, and rRNA is a structural and functional part of the ribosome. Therefore, the correct choice is mRNA.
