PROCESSES:RNA making a protein is called:
A
Transmutation
B
Transferrance
C
Transcription
D
Translation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Translation is the process of synthesis of protein from RNA. In translation, messenger RNA (mRNA) produced by transcription is decoded by the ribosome to produce a specific amino acid chain, or polypeptide, that will later fold into an active protein.

Detailed explanation-2: -Translation is the process by which a protein is synthesized from the information contained in a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA).

Detailed explanation-3: -Translation is a highly regulated process that requires a cell organelle termed ribosome. RNA has proven to play a very important role during translation. Not only is mRNA a copy of the genetic information of DNA, the process of translation requires other RNA molecules such as transfer RNAs and ribosomal RNAs.

Detailed explanation-4: -Translation Translation takes place on ribosomes in the cell cytoplasm, where mRNA is read and translated into the string of amino acid chains that make up the synthesized protein.

Detailed explanation-5: -Translation is the process that takes the information passed from DNA as messenger RNA and turns it into a series of amino acids bound together with peptide bonds. It is essentially a translation from one code (nucleotide sequence) to another code (amino acid sequence).
