The sequence determines which proteins are made and the proteins determine which activities will be performed. And that is how the nucleus is the control center of the cell. The only problem is that the DNA is too big to go through the nuclear pores.

DNA can't be used for protein synthesis simply because it is too large and too large and complicated to leave the nucleus and be translated by the ribosomes. A temporary mRNA copy is required so a specific gene can be used. If this was to be done with DNA, the whole sequence would have to be cut out of the DNA, moved to the cytoplasm, translated and then reattached in the same place in the rest of the DNA.

Why cant proteins be made directly from the DNA message and what is the middleman?

DNA does not leave the nucleus, and proteins are synthesized on the ribosomes in the cytoplasm and rough endoplasmic reticulum. The middleman is messenger RNA, or mRNA, which transcribes the DNA code in the nucleus and takes it to the ribosomes.

How do genes control the way protein is made in a spiders body?

Genes are sections of DNA that control different traits. When the DNA is transcribed to mRNA, then translated by a ribosome, the ribosome is DIRECTLY synthesizing the protein from the mRNA. This means that the genetic code on the DNA directly corresponds to the type of protein that is being made!
