Answer: The pathway involves the transcription and translation processes.

Explanation:

The DNA present in the somatic cells of the eukaryotic organisms undergoes transcription in which the DNA is used as a template to form mRNA. It occurs in nucleus

The mRNA encodes for a amino acid chain for a specific protein in the process of translation. It occurs in cytoplasm and require a cell organelle called ribosome.

The amino acid sequence for different proteins are different.
