Answer:

mRNA, Protein

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To get a protein from gene, the process of transcription first occurs in which the gene ( DNA ) is transcribed into mRNA with the help of RNA polymerase and many other enzymes. It occurs in nucleus.

2. After transcription, this mRNA translate into protein through the process known as translation, this process occurs by the various enzymes and it also require ribosomes and tRNA. It occurs in cytoplasm.
