The central dogma of molecular biology describes the two-step process, transcription and translation, by which the information coded in DNA is used to make proteins or polypeptides.

Using the model presented, what is being formed, B, from the process represented by C? Correctly identify B and C as well as the proper relationship between the two.
Responses
A mRNA (B) is being formed in the nucleus using DNA in the process known as transcription (C).mRNA (B) is being formed in the nucleus using DNA in the process known as transcription (C).
B Proteins (B) are being formed from the process of translation (C), in which DNA code is copied into mRNA in the nucleus.Proteins (B) are being formed from the process of translation (C), in which DNA code is copied into mRNA in the nucleus.
C RNA (B) is being formed from the process of translation (C), in which mRNA carries the DNA code to the nucleus for protein synthesis.RNA (B) is being formed from the process of translation (C), in which mRNA carries the DNA code to the nucleus for protein synthesis.
D Proteins (B) are being formed from the process of translation (C), in which mRNA carries the DNA code to the ribosome for protein synthesis.Proteins (B) are being formed from the process of translation (C), in which mRNA carries the DNA code to the ribosome for protein synthesis.
