DNA MAKES RNA MAKES PROTEIN

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which answer represents the correct order of protein synthesis?
A
mRNA
B
protein
C
DNA
D
protein
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: -Summary. The first step of protein synthesis is transcription-the unfolding of DNA and the production of a messenger-RNA (mRNA) strand. In the second step of protein synthesis-translation-tRNA and mRNA interact to code amino acids into growing polypeptide chains.
