Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which RNA molecule 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, or messenger RNA, is the molecule that carries this information.
  • Step 4: Realize that mRNA is created from DNA through a process called transcription.
  • Step 5: Finally, understand that mRNA travels from the nucleus (where DNA is) to the ribosome (where proteins are made).
