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.
