DNA contains instructions for making the different molecules, such as proteins, that a cell needs to grow and function. To use these instructions, the DNA must first be into . A.
translated; amino acids
B.
translated; mRNA
C.
transcribed, mRNA
D.
transcribed; amino acids

C. transcribed, mRNA

Explanation:

DNA, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid, is a molecule that holds genetic information needed to make other molecules in living organisms. However, before this genetic information can be harnessed, it needs to be expressed via two processes called transcription and translation.

Transcription is the first of the two processes that take place during genetic expression. It involves the synthesis of mRNA molecule from a DNA template. In other words, the DNA must first be TRANSCRIBED into mRNA.

a. to encourage apoptosis

interphase

the period of cell growth when the cell synthesizes new molecules and organelles. the cell is not dividing and it constitutes the majority of the time spent in the cell cycle

prophase

changes occur in the nucleus and cytoplasm. the chromatin condenses to form structures (sister chromatids) visible with a light microscope and the mitotic spindle begins to form, but the nucleus is still in tact

prometaphase

the nuclear envelope fragments and the spindle microtubules attach to the kinetochores of the sister chromatids

metaphase

all the cell's duplicated chromosomes are lined up at an imaginary plane equidistant between the poles of the mitotic spindle

anaphase

begins when sister chromatids separate from each other and ending when a complete set of daughter chromosomes arrives at each of the two poles of the cell

telophase

the daughter nuclei form at the two poles of a cell

cytokinesis

the division of a cytoplasm to form two separate daughter cells. usually occurs during telophase during mitosis. this and mitosis make up to mitotic (m) phase of the cell cycle
