**Multiple Choice Question on Translation in Biology**

**Question 47:**

Translation is ___:

- ○ Use of RNA as a template to make proteins
- ○ Use of DNA as a template to make complementary DNA
- ○ Use of DNA as a template to make RNA

**Explanation:**

Translation is the biological process where ribosomes in a cell's cytoplasm create proteins, following transcription of DNA to RNA. During translation, messenger RNA (mRNA) is decoded to create a specific polypeptide or protein, which will then fold into an active protein and perform functions within the cell. The correct choice here is "Use of RNA as a template to make proteins."
