RNA synthesis depends on RNA polymerases (RNAPs). This is the enzyme that faciliates copying a sequence of DNA which is the first step leading to gene expression. This multi-step process is important for researchers to understand especially in relations to studying how genetics influence disease processes.

Answer: The correct answer is It binds to the promoter region of a gene and adds new nucleotides to the growing end of nascent mRNA.

RNA polymerase is an enzyme that helps in the synthesis of mRNA ( messenger RNA) by using a template of DNA. This process is called transcription.

In this process, RNA polymerase first binds to a specific region in the gene called promoter, which marks the initiation of the transcription.

RNA polymerase by adding new nucleotide at the growing end of the nascent mRNA, synthesizes mRNA, which is complementary to the DNA template.

Thus, first option is the right answer.

In humans, there are four blood types: A, B, AB and O. Each parent can give their offspring one of three blood type alleles, IA

Delvig [45]

Answer: One parent is IAi and the other parent is IBi

Explanation: As this trait is codominant, the child can inherited IA, IB or i.

Tina has type O, which means she is ii and her sister is AB, so her genotype is IAIB. Now, to have a child with a recessive trait both parents has to carry at least one allele for the recessive, i. Rosa is type AB which means she had to have inherited one allele IA from one of her parents and the other IB from the other parent. Thus, one parent is IAi and the other is IBi.
