Answer:

Ribosomes attach to the mRNA and the instructions it carries are used to assemble amino acids in the correct order to make a specific protein.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence of bases in a DNA molecule can determine the order of amino acids in a protein molecule. Groups of three bases called triplets represent different amino acids.

This is the basis of the genetic code. A sequence of bases (genetic information) on DNA that codes for a protein is called a gene.
