D) translation and denaturation
E) transcription and deamination

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two steps required for protein synthesis are transcription (which occurs in the nucleus) and translation (which occurs in the cytoplasm). During transcription, the information encoded in DNA is used to make a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule. The mRNA molecule then carries this information to ribosomes in the cytoplasm where it is used to assemble a protein through the process of translation. Therefore, option B (transcription and translation) is the correct answer.
