[A]: Replication and transcription occur in the nucleus but translation occurs in the cyto- plasm.
[R]: mRNA is transferred from the nucleus in the cytoplasm where ribosomes and amino acids are available for protein synthesis.

Options

B. lf both Assertion & Reason are true but the reason is no t the correct explanation of the assertion, then mark b
C. If Assertion is true statement but Reason is false, then mark c
D. If both Assertion and Reason are false statements, then mark d.

Answer

A

Explanation

DNA replication is the process of forming carbon copy of DNA. Whereas transcription is the formation of RNA over DNA template. DNA replication and transcription takes place in nucleus as the required material DNA and RNA are present in the nucleus. During transcription mRNA take the coded information from DNA to the cytoplasm where translation takes place. Translation is the process of protein synthesis. It is separated from transcription in both space and time. It prevents the intermixing of raw materials, protect DNA from respiratory enzymes and ribosomal machinery from nuclease.
