Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ holds the genetic instructions to create proteins, which are sent to the ____ where proteins are made.
A
Lysosomes, Vacuole
B
Nucleus, Ribosome
C
Mitochondria, chloroplasts
D
Cell Wall, Cell Membrane
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a long molecule that contains our unique genetic code. Like a recipe book it holds the instructions for making all the proteins in our bodies. facts What is a gene? Genes are small sections of DNA within the genome that code for proteins.

Detailed explanation-2: -Protein synthesis Synthesis of new proteins starts in the nucleus, where ribosomes get their instruction to begin the process. Sections of DNA (genes), encoding a specific protein, are copied over to messenger RNA (mRNA) strands in a process called transcription.

Detailed explanation-3: -Within the ribosome, the rRNA molecules direct the catalytic steps of protein synthesis-the stitching together of amino acids to make a protein molecule.

Detailed explanation-4: -messenger RNA (mRNA), molecule in cells that carries codes from the DNA in the nucleus to the sites of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm (the ribosomes).

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
