Answer:

DNA template strand 3' ________ 5'

DNA nontemplate strand 5' ________ 3'

Option B

Explanation:

DNA template strand is also the coding strand from which the mRNA is transcribed thus to transcribe an mRNA moving in the 5' to 3' direction, the template strand must run in the 3' to 5' direction while the non template which is the non coding strand and also is the same as the mRNA strand runs in the 5' to 3' direction.

The RNA polymerase moves and transcribes this mRNA in the 3' to 5' direction along the template strand.

Answer:

B) 3' - 5' direction along the template strand

Explanation:

Transcription is the first stage of gene expression or protein synthesis. It involves making a complementary strand of mRNA from a DNA template. The process of transcription is carried out by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. RNA polymerase initially binds to a specific region on the DNA called PROMOTER region. This triggers the initiation process.

The RNA polymerase then begins to read one strand of the DNA molecule called TEMPLATE strand. The template strand reads in the 3'-5' direction. The RNA polymerase, unwinding the double helix of the DNA as it progresses, reads the nucleotide bases on the template DNA strand and synthesizes complementary bases on the growing RNA molecule. The RNA transcript contains same information as the non-template DNA strand with the exception of Uracil base instead of Thymine. The RNA strand reads in the 5'-3' direction.

Hence, the RNA polymerase moves in the 3'-5' direction on the template strand during transcription.

Which cell structure plays a direct role in the release of chemicals from the cell?
jonny [76]

Answer:

The correct answer is - the cell membrane.

Explanation:

When a human cell gets an external stimulus it triggers the production of the specific compound or chemical release which is packed in vesicles from the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus to the cell membrane. The cell membrane is the cell organelle that allows or prohibits the entry or exit of any substance.

Chemical release or secretion also depends on the cell membrane and it allows the secretion of chemicals and plays an important role in the secretion of chemical, hormones, or any substance.
