The picture below shows the process of transcription. During transcription, enzymes bind to a molecule of DNA. Then, the enzymes

unwind and separate the DNA's double helical strands. As the molecule unwinds, complementary nucleotides pair with one of the DNA strands to form A. an identical strand of DNA. B. a protein molecule. C. a DNA polymerase. D. an RNA molecule.

Answer:

D (a RNA molecule)

Explanation:

Transcription is the first stage of protein synthesis involving the making of a complementary strand of mRNA from a DNA template. The process of transcription occurs in three major steps viz: INITIATION- where the enzyme called RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region of a gene and unwinds the DNA in order to read the nucleotide bases in the single strand. ELONGATION- After unwinding the DNA, the RNA polymerase adds nucleotides bases that are complementary to the original single DNA strand.

During elongation process, the Complementary base pairing rule is employed i.e. (A-U, G-C). If the RNA polymerase reads an Adenine base in the DNA, it synthesizes a Uracil base, if it reads Thymine, it synthesizes Adenine, the same goes for Guanine and Cytosine (vice versa).

N.B: The Thymine in the DNA is replaced by Uracil in the newly synthesized RNA molecule.

The last stage of transcription is when the RNA molecule attached to the single DNA strand is released.

Why is system thinking important
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Systems thinking is a powerful approach for understanding the nature of why situations are the way they are, and how to go about improving results. Historical perspective is important in understanding the evolution of a situation and in identifying patterns of behaviors over time.

Why is transcription essential for making proteins
Kryger [21]

Messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules carry the coding sequences for protein synthesis and are called transcripts; ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules form the core of a cell's ribosomes (the structures in which protein synthesis takes place); and transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules carry amino acids to the ribosomes during protein synthesis. In eukaryotic cells, each class of RNA has its own polymerase, whereas in prokaryotic cells, a single RNA polymerase synthesizes the different class of RNA. Other types of RNA also exist but are not as well understood, although they appear to play regulatory roles in gene expression and also be involved in protection against invading viruses.

. A Darwinist is likely to believe that A) heritable traits cannot be altered by experience. B) all human behavior has its roots
barxatty [35]

Answer:

A) heritable traits cannot be altered by experience

Explanation:

This is because the Darwinist believe that heritable traits were  acquired from previous generation not  from practise  or  learning which may  develop to experience with time.He believed that certain selective pressures must have acted  or selected these  organisms to possess these heritable characteristics, and can not be altered by experience  whicg is acquired with age.

He should conclude therefore  that variation in the organisms which possess these characteristics should be the main factor which gives them selective advantages to inherit these traits compare to others in this same   surrounding environment  Therefore  he will discard the influence of environment.
