Answer: D. RNA polymerase binds to the promoter on the template strand of DNA.

Explanation: The first step in transcription is termed initiation step. In this step, the enzyme RNA polymerase binds to a region or section of a gene called the promoter. This specific action results to the signalling of the DNA to unwind so the enzyme can decode the bases in the DNA strands. The enzyme now make a strand of mRNA with contemporary bases.

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Transcription is the first step in gene expression. It involves duplicating a gene's DNA sequence to make an RNA molecule.

It is performed by enzymes called RNA polymerases, which link nucleotides to form an RNA strand (using a DNA strand as a template)

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

The female with brown teeth had a father with normal teeth. Since normal teeth is a recessive trait, the father would have been homozygous recessive for the trait and would have transmitted one recessive allele to the female. Therefore, the female is heterozygous dominant for brown teeth.

Let's assume that the allele for brown teeth is X^B while the one for normal teeth is X^b. The genotype of heterozygous dominant female would be X^BX^b and that of the male with normal teeth would be X^bY.

A cross between X^BX^b and X^bY gives progeny in following phenotype ratio= 1/4 daughter with brown teeth: 1/4 daughter with normal teeth: 1/4 son with brown teeth: 1/4 son with normal teeth. Therefore, the probability of having a daughter with brown teeth is = 25%
