Question

Which sequence depicts the correct order of protein synthesis within a cell?
Responses

DNA > amino acids > mRNA > proteins
DNA > amino acids > mRNA > proteins

DNA > mRNA > amino acids > proteins
DNA > mRNA > amino acids > proteins

DNA > mRNA > proteins > amino acids
DNA > mRNA > proteins > amino acids

DNA > proteins > amino acids > mRNA

Answer 1

The correct order of protein synthesis within a cell is:

**DNA > mRNA > amino acids > proteins**

This can also be summarized as follows:
1. **Transcription**: DNA is transcribed to form mRNA.
2. **Translation**: The mRNA is translated into a sequence of amino acids, which then fold into a protein.

The most correct representation from the options given is:

**DNA > mRNA > amino acids > proteins.**
