Solution

The correct option is B mRNA
DNA is the reservoir of genetic information of an organism. It gets transcribed into mRNA in the nucleus, which then gets translated into proteins in the ribosome. Thus, mRNA acts as the ‘messenger’ which carries genetic information from the nucleus to ribosome.
