Explanation :
Answer: C) The cell uses information from messenger RNA to produce proteins Explanation: Translation is the process by which a protein is synthesized from the information contained in a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). During translation, an mRNA sequence is read using the genetic code, which is a set of rules that defines how an mRNA sequence is to be translated into the 20-letter code of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. In short, during the process of translation source language text is conveyed to destination language.
