DNA MAKES RNA MAKES PROTEIN

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the correct order?
A
Transcription then Translation
B
Translation then transcription
C
Translation then replication
D
Replication then Translation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In order for a cell to manufacture these proteins, specific genes within its DNA must first be transcribed into molecules of mRNA; then, these transcripts must be translated into chains of amino acids, which later fold into fully functional proteins.

Detailed explanation-2: -This is a two-step process. The first step is transcription in which the sequence of one gene is replicated in an RNA molecule. The second step is translation in which the RNA molecule serves as a code for the formation of an amino-acid chain (a polypeptide).

Detailed explanation-3: -Translation of an mRNA molecule by the ribosome occurs in three stages: initiation, elongation, and termination.
