Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What type of RNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome?
  • Step 1: Understand that DNA contains the genetic information of an organism.
  • Step 2: Know that this genetic information needs to be transferred to the ribosome to make proteins.
  • Step 3: Learn that mRNA, which stands for messenger RNA, is the type of RNA that carries this information.
  • Step 4: Realize that mRNA is created from DNA through a process called transcription.
  • Step 5: Finally, understand that the ribosome reads the mRNA to assemble proteins based on the genetic code.
