Question
Transcription happens in the _________ and translation occurs in the _______.
Answer: Option B
:
B
DNA gets transcribed into mRNA within the nucleus. The mRNA gets processed, and moves out through the nuclear pores into the cytoplasm to get attached to the ribosomes for protein synthesis. In eukaryotes, the endoplasmic reticulum lies right outside the nucleus, and its membrane is in fact, continuous with the outer nuclear membrane. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is studded with ribosomes. There are also free ribosomes in the cytoplasm of a cell. Translation of mRNA to protein can happen in both attached and free ribosomes.
