what is the function of mrna?
brings amino acids
makes ribosomes
carries the genetic code
unwinds dna
mRNA (messenger RNA) is synthesized during transcription. It carries the genetic information (genetic code) from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. tRNA (transfer RNA) brings amino acids (eliminating option A). rRNA (ribosomal RNA) is involved in making ribosomes (eliminating option B). Enzymes like helicase unwind DNA (eliminating option D). So, mRNA's function is to carry the genetic code.
