Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which component is not directly involved in translation?
A
ribosomes
B
tRNA
C
mRNA
D
DNA
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During translation DNA is not directly involved in its process. DNA first gets transcribed to RNA to form the mRNA which then gets translated to form the amino acid chain. DNA is only used in the process of replication and transcription. In translation it has no direct role.

Detailed explanation-2: -Components of Translation The key components required for translation are mRNA, ribosomes, and transfer RNA (tRNA). During translation, mRNA nucleotide bases are read as codons of three bases.

Detailed explanation-3: -DNA is not directly involved in the synthesis of proteins.

Detailed explanation-4: -Ribosomes: Where the translation happens. Translation takes place inside structures called ribosomes, which are made of RNA and protein. Ribosomes organize translation and catalyze the reaction that joins amino acids to make a protein chain.

Detailed explanation-5: -Expert-Verified Answer Ligase is not a necessary component of translation. Ligases are enzyme that are used to bind DNA. DNA ligase enzymes are used in the replication process or in the repairing process.
