H. dujardini, famous for surviving some of the harshest conditions of any organism we know of, is a perfect example…

messenger rna the structure of messenger rna : Messenger RNA functions as the template for protein synthesis it carries genetic information from DNA to a ribosome and helps to assemble amino acids in their correct order. Each amino acid in a protein is specified by a set of three nucleotides in the mRNA, called a codon.

D1 The DNA is contained in the nucleus. The Genes that are needed in the production of antibody are contained in the DNA. The production of antibody begins with the genes of the antibody being transcribed into mRNA this leaves the nucleus by joining on to the ribosome. Lots of cells secrete proteins into their surrounding extracellular fluid. Some cells like hormones and neurotransmitters secrete regulatory molecules. Whereas others release digestive enzymes, antibodies, or mucus. Fibroblasts…

it can't, so what does it do then? The answer to that, is that DNA makes a copy of one of its helixs to get out of the nucleus. The process of DNA making a copy of itself is called transcription. The copy of the DNA is called mRNA and that is the messenger type of RNA. The DNA makes a copy of itself called mRNA, then gets out of the nucleus and leaves to attach itself onto a ribosome. The process of the mRNA attaching itself to the ribosome is called translation. The ribosome acts as a "Zipper"…
