CELL DAMAGE

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ is made during transcription and ____ is made during translation.
A
mRNA / a protein
B
a protein / mRNA
C
Ribosome / Nucleus
D
mRNA / tRNA
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Once an mRNA has been produced, by transcription and processing the information present in its nucleotide sequence is used to synthesize a protein.

Detailed explanation-2: -During transcription, a piece of DNA that codes for a specific gene is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA) in the nucleus of the cell. The mRNA then carries the genetic information from the DNA to the cytoplasm, where translation occurs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Messenger RNA (abbreviated mRNA) is a type of single-stranded RNA involved in protein synthesis. mRNA is made from a DNA template during the process of transcription.

Detailed explanation-4: -During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase (green) uses DNA as a template to produce a pre-mRNA transcript (pink). The pre-mRNA is processed to form a mature mRNA molecule that can be translated to build the protein molecule (polypeptide) encoded by the original gene.

Detailed explanation-5: -In order for a cell to manufacture these proteins, specific genes within its DNA must first be transcribed into molecules of mRNA; then, these transcripts must be translated into chains of amino acids, which later fold into fully functional proteins.
