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.

Is the process in which DNA's genetic code is copied onto messenger RNA molecules known as translation?

No, the process in which DNA's genetic code is copied onto messenger RNA molecules is known as transcription, not translation. Translation is the process in which the mRNA is read by ribosomes to synthesize proteins.


What is the making a protein using messenger RNA?

Translation


Where does cellular translation occur?

In genetic processes, translation is the process by which the genetic code in messenger RNA is used to make proteins. (from the English language word for deciphering foreign meanings.)


What Rna type carries the instructions for making a protein from a gene to the site of translation?

Messenger Rna.


What is needed for translation and transcription to occur?

For translation to occur, ribosomes, messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and amino acids are essential components. Transcription requires DNA, RNA polymerase, and nucleotides to synthesize RNA from a DNA template. Both processes also depend on various initiation, elongation, and termination factors to ensure accurate synthesis of proteins from genetic information.


Does translation occur on the ribosome?

Yes, translation occurs on the ribosome. The ribosome reads messenger RNA (mRNA) and uses transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules to decode the mRNA sequence into a specific sequence of amino acids, ultimately forming a protein.


What organelle is used during translation?

Translation occurs in the ribosome not the nucleusTranslation takes place in the ribosomes.


What is the type of RNA that is converted to a protein during translation?

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is translated into polypeptides on ribosomes by transfer RNA (tRNA).


RNA molecule that is template for translation?

messenger RNA (mRNA) is the molecule that serves as the template for translation to occur. mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where it is translated into a sequence of amino acids to build a protein.


What type of RNA is involved in translation?

ribosomal RNA and transfer RNA


WHAT IS THE process whereby the message transcribed into messenger RNA is converted to a polypeptide?

Translation


What is meant by mRNA?

mRNA = messenger RNA. This is one of the three types of RNA and it brings the DNA code to the tRNA in translation.
