Question

Prior to protein synthesis, the DNAA)  attracts tRNAs with appropriate amino acids.B)  serves as a template for the production of mRNA.C)  adheres to ribosomes for protein synthesis.D)  contains anticodons that become codons.E)  must first undergo replication.

Gaetane Beauté · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  DNA serves as the template for the production of mRNA through a process called transcription. This mRNA then carries the genetic information to the ribosome, where protein synthesis occurs. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
