Characteristics of mRNA
A
is made in the nucleus and moves out into the cytoplasm
B
makes up the ribosome
C
copies the instructions from DNA
D
carries the amino acids to the ribosome to be made into the protein
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The majority of genes carried in a cell’s DNA specify the amino acid sequence of proteins; the RNA molecules that are copied from these genes (which ultimately direct the synthesis of proteins) are called messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -mRNA is a long, single-stranded molecule consisting of nucleotides attached by phosphodiester bonds. It contains four nitrogenous bases, adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil. The RNA is complementary to one of the DNA strands except for uracil instead of thymine in DNA.
