kozerog [31]3 years ago

When a fire is lit, it releases CO2 which will allow the combustion reaction to occur. When a fire is lit, energy is being emitted causing the paper to burn in contact with oxygen. The paper doesn't light up when in usual contact with oxygen because there's not energy fueling the reaction to occur.

Read the information for transcription and then answer the question. Protein Synthesis Explain the process of transcription.
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Transcription is the first process that occurs in protein synthesis. It involves the use of the stored information in the DNA molecule to synthesize a mRNA molecule.

Transcription, which occurs in the nucleus of eukaryotes and cytoplasm of prokaryotes, is catalyzed by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. RNA polymerase binds to the double-stranded DNA and begins to unwind it (Initiation). This unwinding causes the nucleotide bases to be exposed in order for the RNA polymerase enzyme to read.

The enzyme reads the bases of the DNA and begins to synthesize RNA nucleotides using the complementary base pairing rule (Elongation) i.e. Adenine base paired with Uracil base (RNA), and Guanine paired with Cytosine etc.

The single-stranded mRNA is released at the end of the transcription process (termination). This is basically what occurs in transcription.
