Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which best summarizes the process of protein synthesis for all organisms?
A
DNA replicates and carries the code to tRNA for protein construction.
B
DNA serves as the template for mRNA, which carries the code to a ribosome for protein construction.
C
DNA replicates and carries the code to a ribosome for protein construction.
D
DNA serves as the template for a tRNA, which carries the code to mRNA for protein construction.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Which best summarizes the process of protein synthesis? DNA unzips, resulting in the formation of two protein molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -5.7 Summary Protein synthesis is the process in which cells make proteins. It occurs in two stages: transcription and translation. Transcription is the transfer of genetic instructions in DNA to mRNA in the nucleus. It includes three steps: initiation, elongation, and termination.

Detailed explanation-3: -Proteins are synthesized using mRNA as a template in a process called translation . The second process of central dogma is translation. It involves reading of genetic code to make a protein. Protein is synthesized by the combined action of tRNA and the ribosome.

Detailed explanation-4: -Which of the following best summarizes the role of DNA in protein synthesis? DNA contains the genetic code that determines the amino acid sequence of proteins.
