 | |
 |
contains the same information as that found in a gene; |
 |
is produced by the nucleolus; |
 |
acts as a template for the production of a protein molecule; |
 |
plays its functional role at the ribosomes; |
 |
all of the alternatives are correct; |
CORRECT - Yes, mRNA is produced by the nucleolus and contains the genetic information that serves as a template for synthesis of a protein. mRNA bonds with protein molecules to form a ribosome, where the actual synthesis takes place.
