Which of the following structures is not directly involved in translation?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
Translation is the process of protein synthesis where mRNA is decoded to produce a specific polypeptide chain. tRNA brings amino acids to the ribosome, and the ribosome is the site where translation occurs. DNA is not directly involved in translation; instead, it serves as the genetic material that stores the instructions for protein synthesis but does not play a direct role in the protein synthesis machinery.
