You are trying to explain to your classmate how DNA is used to make proteins. What should you include in your explanation? Select ALL that apply. A) During translation, the genetic code in mRNA is read and used to put amino acids in place to make a protein.
B) During transcription, the genetic code in mRNA is read and used to put nucleotides in place to make a protein.
C) DNA contains all of the instructions an organism needs to live. DNA must travel to the ribosome where its code is read to make proteins.
D) During transcription, DNA is used as a template to make a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA) which then leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome in the cytoplasm.
E) DNA contains all of the instructions an organism needs to live. DNA sequences must be converted into messages that can be used to produce proteins which do most of the work in our bodies.
