Glofish were made by inserting the genetic code for a glowing protein from jellyfish into a regular fish. Which statement best explains why this works?

All marine creatures have the ability to produce glowing proteins to survive in the water

In addition to the genetic code, glofish take the glowing protein from the jellyfish

The genetic code is universal so the glofish can make the jellyfish protein

Glofish cannot translate jellyfish proteins, so they inherited the trait from other fish
