None of the above.

Detailed explanation-1: -The role of mRNA is to carry protein information from the DNA in a cell’s nucleus to the cell’s cytoplasm (watery interior), where the protein-making machinery reads the mRNA sequence and translates each three-base codon into its corresponding amino acid in a growing protein chain.
Detailed explanation-2: -Messenger RNA (mRNA) Messenger RNA is a large family of RNA molecules that are complimentary to DNA molecules and convey genetic information from the DNA to be translated by ribosomes into proteins (Brenner et al., 1961). mRNAs, like DNA, are nucleic acids that contain a specific sequence of nucleotides.
Detailed explanation-3: -The type of RNA that contains the information for making a protein is called messenger RNA (mRNA) because it carries the information, or message, from the DNA out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm.
