mRNA is basically instructions for the creation of a protein. (the m stands for messenger) proteins are made in the ribosomes and they are made from 'amino acids' and basically these mRNA's tell the amino acids how to align to make a specific protein.

What is used to carry the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes?
The mRNA carries the genetic code needed to make a protein to the ribosome from DNA via microtubules.
What do DNA mutations directly affect?
It will affect protein synthesis. mRNA uses DNA (a gene) as a template and mRNA is a template to join amino acids together. If the DNA sequence (gene) is changed, the mRNA will be changed, and the polypeptides will be changed - usually with harmful consequences. Proteins produce phenotypes in organisms, so a mutation in DNA causes abnormalities.
Carries the message of DNA to ribosomes?
mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the instructions for protein synthesis from the DNA to the ribosomes.
MRNA carries the genetic code of DNA because?
DNA stays in the nucleus of a cell, where it will duplicate during cell division. As such, for processes like transcription, mRNA delivers the code to where it needs to be, so that the DNA doesn't have to, in its entirety, move out to where that code is needed.
The code of mrna directly dependent on the?
sequence of nitrogen based pairs in associated DNA
In the central theory of gene expressions what is the process of making mRNA from the code in DNA called?
A+LS= Transcription
In the central theory of gene expression what is the process of making mrna from the code DNA called?
A+LS= Transcription
In the central theory of gene expression what is the process of making mRNA from the code in DNA called?
A+LS= Transcription
Section of DNA that forms a particular strand of messenger RNA?
A section of DNA that corresponds to an mRNA is a gene.
How much DNA unzips to make mRNA?
One mRNA strand is made.
Which nucleic acid can be a gene?
A gene is a segment only on DNA. A gene transcribed to mRNA is usually no longer referred to as a gene.
Where does the mRNA get its code for making proteins?
mRNA gets its code from DNA during process "Transcription".
What a coded or uncoded key is?
Coded means the 2% of protein which transfer from reading code mRNA (transcription) from a DNA and uncoded is the rest 98% which still in the form of gene (DNA).
Contains chemical instructions for inherited traits?
DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid but also in a sense mRNA; messenger RNA. These are both nucleotides.
Is mRNA used to carry the genetic code from DNA to ribosomes?
mRNA carries the genetic code to a ribosome.
When isolation the gene why is better to obtain its mRNA?
mRNA does not contain introns (the original DNA does). These are sections which do not code for a functional product - such as a protein. Using mRNA you can deduce what the final (protein) product will be. It also allows you to create cDNA - which is used for storage.
What is used to carry the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes?
The mRNA carries the genetic code needed to make a protein to the ribosome from DNA via microtubules.
