I would go with D as it is closest to correct. Every part of the surface of the Earth is a tectonic plate though. The plates vary in thickness, but all of the surface of the Earth is made up of tectonic plates, including the parts under the ocean. Technically, the Earth's landmass does not rest on the tectonic plates, it IS the tectonic plates, but it is the closest to correct here in my opinion.
I agree with the first answer they would contrast is correct
The messenger RNA is a single-stranded intermediate
molecule that transfers the genetic information from DNA to the cytoplasm,
which is used as a template to assemble the chain of amino acids that form a variety of polypeptides. Therefore, mRNA is the blueprint for
protein synthesis, which is read according to the genetic code during gene
expression.
