Question
which best summarizes the process of protein synthesis? rna instructs dna to make proteins. dna unzips, resulting in the formation of two protein molecules. rna moves the dna code to the ribosomes for protein synthesis. dna makes proteins in the nucleus.
In protein synthesis, DNA is first transcribed into RNA (messenger - RNA or mRNA) in the nucleus. Then, the mRNA moves out of the nucleus to the ribosomes. The mRNA carries the genetic code from the DNA to the ribosomes where proteins are synthesized. DNA does not directly make proteins in the nucleus, and DNA does not unzip to form proteins directly. RNA does not instruct DNA to make proteins.
