Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the message or genetic code from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, where the code is translated into a protein. tRNA (transfer RNA) carries amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis, rRNA (ribosomal RNA) is a component of the ribosome itself, and DNA is located in the nucleus and does not directly participate in protein synthesis.
