A eukaryotic gene's protein product was made by which sequence of events?
- Acheck_circle
Transcription in nucleus → mRNA processing → mRNA export → translation in cytoplasm
- B
Translation of DNA → mRNA processing in nucleus → protein export to cytoplasm
- C
Splicing in cytoplasm → transcription in nucleus → translation at the nuclear envelope
- D
Transcription in cytoplasm → mRNA processing → mRNA import → translation in nucleus
Explanation
Eukaryotic transcription happens in the nucleus; mRNA is processed (cap, poly-A, splicing), exported, then translated by cytosolic or ER-bound ribosomes.
