Answer:
The correct answer is option c. "formation of protocells that use DNA to direct the polymerization of amino acids".
Explanation:
The polymerization of amino acids is a complex biological function that involves multiple proteins and cofactors working together at different locations in the cell. Even though there are some scientific advances in the production of synthetic protocells (cell like structures made from synthetic particles), the formation of protocells able to synthesize amino acids from DNA directly has not been accomplished.
