The DNA is copied onto segments called RNA, this RNA is moved into the cytoplasm and is read by a ribosome which then creates a protein from the specific codons ( 3 letter segments ) on the strip of RNA.

Which organelle has most of the genes that controls the cell?

DNA is found in the nucleus. Genes are sections of DNA that code for a functional product, such as protein. Therefore the nucleus is the site where the functions of the cell are controlled.


What are the sections of mRNA that are cut out in the nucleus called?

The sections of mRNA that are cut out in the nucleus are called introns. After the introns are removed, the remaining sections, called exons, are spliced together to form the mature mRNA that is then transported to the cytoplasm for translation.


What is DNA converted into protein?

During transcription, the DNA code is transcribed by mRNA, forming a mRNA molecule that will leave the nucleus and go to a ribosome to be translated into a protein.


How is the genetic code transferred from the nucleus into the cytoplasm?

The genetic code is transcribed in the nucleus to produce messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA then exits the nucleus through nuclear pores and enters the cytoplasm, where it serves as a template for protein synthesis at the ribosomes.


Sections of DNA that code for a particular protein are called?

Sections of DNA that code for a particular protein are called genes. These genes contain the instructions for assembling specific proteins through a process known as gene expression.


What macromolecules provides the code for protein?

They are the DNA. They are type of nucleic acids


What sections of DNA code the making of a specific protein?

The sections of DNA that code for a specific protein are called genes. Genes are made up of sequences of DNA that provide the instructions for synthesizing proteins through the process of transcription and translation. Each gene contains the information needed to produce a specific protein.


WHAT cell structure holds the code for the protein that will be made?

The cell structure that holds the code for the protein to be made is the nucleus. Within the nucleus, DNA contains the genetic instructions that dictate how proteins are synthesized. This information is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA), which then exits the nucleus and is translated into proteins by ribosomes in the cytoplasm.


What carries a specific code from the nucleus to the site if protein synthesis?

Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries the specific genetic code from the nucleus to the ribosomes, where protein synthesis occurs. The mRNA molecule is synthesized during transcription and serves as a template for protein production during translation.


Is the nucleus the organelle that is the center for protein synthesis?

No. protein synthesis occurs in the ribosome. The ribosome receives the mRNA from the nucleus (code for amino acids) which directs the assembly of the chain of amino acids, but the nucleus is not directly responsible for the creation of the protein. Also, the ribosome isa separate organelle, even if it is attached to the nucleus while assembling the protein chain.


What are the genes?

Genes are the sections of DNA that code for a functional product, such as a protein. They interact with an organism's environment to produce traits.


Are genes carried on chromosomes?

Yes, genes are found on chromosomes. They are the sections of DNA that code for a functional product (a protein).
