Question

DNA cannot leave the nucleus
Options
A True
Correct Answer
B False
C
D
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

In eukaryotic cells, DNA is enclosed within the nucleus and does not leave it. The information in DNA is transcribed into mRNA, which then exits the nucleus through nuclear pores to be translated into proteins.

Hint

Does the DNA itself travel out of the nucleus, or just a copy of its instructions?
