Not directly. It is mRNA that participates directly in translation in place of DNA. This has the advantage of allowing one gene to be expressed (its protein produced) many times at once, since multiple mRNA strands can be created from the DNA, and then all translated (over and over again) at the same time.

well kind of. DNA is transcribed into RNA and the RNA goes through protein synthesis which involves translation.

Where in the cell do replication translation and transcription occur?

Most of the DNA in a eukaryotic cell is in the nucleus, and that is where DNA replication and transcription occur.In eukaryotic cells, mitochondria and chloroplastsalso contain DNA, which performs replication and transcription inside these organelles.In prokaryotic cells there is no nucleus. The DNA is in a region of the cytoplasm called the nucleoid, and that is where DNA replication and transcription occur in these cells.

Where does Translation of messenger RNA occur?

Translation (protein synthesis) occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. But recognize that the mRNA is the code used to bring together amino acids in translation. While the code is derived from DNA, DNA does not leave the nucleus (in eukaryotes) or directly take part in translation.
