A ribonucleic acid that is used to copy DNA code for the use in protein synthesis is called

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a type of RNA that carries genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where it serves as a template for protein synthesis. It is involved in the process of transcription, where it copies the genetic information from DNA and carries it to the ribosome where the actual protein synthesis occurs. Ribosomes (A) are the cellular organelles that synthesize proteins, but they do not copy DNA. Meiosis (C) is a type of cell division involved in sexual reproduction. Lysine (D) is an amino acid, one of the building blocks of proteins, but it is not involved in the process of copying DNA. Sugar-phosphate (E) refers to the structure of the nucleotide building blocks that make up DNA and RNA, but it does not specifically refer to the mRNA molecule used in protein synthesis.
