TRANSLATION:Translation occurs in the:
A
office
B
cytoplasm
C
nucleus
D
cell membrane
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The mRNA then carries the genetic information from the DNA to the cytoplasm, where translation occurs. During translation, proteins are made using the information stored in the mRNA sequence. The mRNA attaches to a structure called a ribosome that can read the genetic information.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -The nuclear envelope of eukaryotic cells separates the nucleus and cytoplasm. It is thought to partition transcription and processing of messenger RNAs (mRNAs), which occur in the nucleus, from protein synthesis (translation), which is observed in the cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-4: -Assertion : Replication and transcription occur in the nucleus but translation takes place in the cytoplasm. Reason : mRNA is transferred from the nucleus into cytoplasm where ribosomes and amino acids are available for protein synthesis.

Detailed explanation-5: -Transcription occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotic organisms, while translation occurs in the cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum.
