Transcription and translation
The two processes involved in using DNA to make proteins are transcription and translation. During transcription, the DNA sequence is copied into a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule. In translation, the mRNA is used by ribosomes to assemble the corresponding amino acids into a protein.
Replication is not involved in translation. Translation is the process of decoding mRNA to build a protein using a ribosome and tRNA, while replication is the process of duplicating DNA to make a copy of the genetic material.
Ribosomes make proteins using directions from the head office (DNA).
Nucleic acids make proteins.
Proteins are especially important because they serve a wide range of functions in the body, including cell signaling, immune response, and as catalysts for enzyme activity. Their diverse roles make them vital for maintaining proper physiological functions and processes.

The Golgi apparatus does not produce proteins, but it processes and packages proteins synthesized by ribosomes in the cell. It modifies, sorts, and packages proteins into vesicles for delivery to their final destinations within or outside the cell.
DNA contains the information used to make proteins.
The rough endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein synthesis and modification. It has ribosomes attached to its surface that facilitate the synthesis of proteins that are then processed and packaged for transportation within the cell or secretion outside of the cell.
Lipids are a storage form for energy produced during photosynthesis. Proteins are essential components of the enzymes involved in photosynthesis. Nucleic acids carry the genetic information that codes for the proteins involved in photosynthesis.
No, centrioles do not make proteins. They are cylindrical structures composed of microtubules and play a role in organizing the microtubules during cell division. Proteins are typically synthesized in ribosomes, not in centrioles.
Soluble proteins are proteins that can dissolve in water or other solvents. They typically have hydrophilic regions on their surface that make them compatible with aqueous environments. These proteins play important roles in various cellular processes, such as enzymatic reactions, signal transduction, and structural support.
