The image shows the transcription process in which mRNA is being synthesized. DNA double strands open in the transcription bubble and RNA polymerase acts there to add the correct nucleotides.

<h3>What is transcription?</h3>

In protein synthesis, the first step is to synthesize messenger RNA, mRNA.

Transcription is the coping process of the DNA section, occurs inside the nucleus membrane, and uses fragments of DNA molecules to do it.

During transcription, the DNI molecule separates into two strands to form the transcription bubble. At this point, two strands can identify, the coding strand and the template strand.  

  • The coding strand goes in direction 5' to 3' and carries the same nucleotides as mRNA, except for thymine which is replaced by uracyl in the RNA molecule.

  • The template -complementary- DNI strand is read in direction 3´→ 5´ to build the mRNA molecule in direction 5´→ 3´.

While growing, the mRNA strand complements the DNA template strand. Bases complementation is as follows,

  • Adenine pairs DNA Thymine
  • Uracyl pairs DNA Adenine
  • Guanine pairs Cytosine
  • Cytosine pairs Guanine

The enzyme RNA polymerase reads the original DNI strand to add the correct nucleotides during mRNA synthesis.

Once transcription is over, mRNA moves to the cytoplasm to begin the translation process.

In the image we can see

1) the DNA molecule at the left. We can differenciate the template strand from the coding one.

2) the transcription bubble and RNA polymerase acting there.

3) Growing mRNA which complements the template strand

4) Available free nucleotides which are added to the polymere

topjm [15]

Answer:

- fibrous joint between radius and ulna: C. syndesmosis

- fibrous joint that unites bones of the skull: H. suture

- articulation between teeth and bone: J. gomphosis

- joint with a cavity between bones: E. synovial

- the epiphyseal plate: F. synchondrosis

- articulation between two pubic bones: A. symphysis

- permits opposition and reposition:  B. saddle  

- fibrocartilagenous fluid filled sacs outside the joint cavity: G. meniscus

- most common degenerative joint disease: D. osteoarthritis    

- movement of the sole laterally:  I. eversion  

Explanation:

The syndesmosis can be defined as a fibrous joint held together by ligaments. Sutures are fibrous joints of tissue that link the cranial bones of the skull. A gomphosis is a mobile fibrous that binds the teeth into sockets in the mandible and maxilla. Synovial joints are joints found between bones that move against each other (e.g., shoulder bones). They (synovial joints) are the most common class of joints found in the body. A symphysis is a cartilaginous, slightly movable, joint between two bones. A saddle is a synovial joint whose opposing surfaces are concave and convex, respectively. Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis, this condition occurs when the protective cartilage surrounding the bones wears away over time. Finally, eversion refers to a type of movement of the foot which occurs in the auctioneering joint.
