Solution

The correct option is A. True.

Cellular DNA is the information source for making proteins in the cell.

Chromosomes are made up of DNA and functional segments of DNA are called genes. There are messages encoded in the genes which are responsible for protein synthesis.

Hence, DNA is not directly involved in protein synthesis but serves as the information source.
