  • mRNA: The RNA Molecule Derived Directly from DNA - Central Dogma Explained
    The molecule coded directly from DNA is mRNA (messenger RNA). It's represented by number 2 in the central dogma of molecular biology.

    Here's a breakdown of the central dogma:

    1. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid): The genetic blueprint of an organism.

    2. mRNA (messenger RNA): A copy of a gene from DNA that carries the genetic code to the ribosome.

    3. tRNA (transfer RNA): Carries amino acids to the ribosome to build proteins.

    4. Protein: The functional molecule built according to the instructions in DNA.

    So, the answer is 2.
