Messenger RNA (mRNA) takes the instructions, encoded in the DNA of the nucleus, out to the ribosomes which then assemble the amino acids in the correct order to form the appropriate protein.
The part of the nucleus that carries coded information called genes is the chromosome. The chromosome is a threadlike structure of nucleic acid and proteins.
mRNA
Nucleic acids actually have 4 functions: 1 for DNA and 1 for each type of RNA. For DNA, nucleic acids are responsible for storing and replicating genetic information For rRNA (ribosomal RNA), nucleic acids are responsible for the basis of the structure and function of ribosomes For mRNA (messenger RNA), nucleic acids are responsible carrying messages through the cell For tRNA (transfer RNA), nucleic acids are responsible for carrying amino acids
tRNA (Transfer RNA) is responsible for carrying the amino acid to the ribosomes during translation. The tRNA anti-codon binds to the mRNA codon (3-base code) to ensure that the correct amino acid is added to the chain.

No, the actual "carrying" and transportation is done by mRNA.

Yes the rough endoplasmic reticula are covered in ribosomes carrying out protein synthesis. There may also be free ribosomes in the cell cytoplasm
