Answer 1

The answer is protein.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The process described in the scheme is translation which is the final step of the central dogma of molecular biology.
• The central dogma of molecular biology traces the transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA to Protein.
• Translation is the generation of a protein or polypeptide chain by the decoding of the mRNA sequence by tRNA into amino acid sequences corresponding to a certain protein.
• Every tRNA carries a specific amino acid at one end and its corresponding anticodon on the other. The anticodon on the tRNA is complementary to a specific codon on the mRNA. The tRNA uses this anticodon to identify and decode the codons on mRNA.
• The entire protein synthesis takes place inside the ribosomes which are the cell's principal organelles for protein synthesis.
