On the islands of the Galapagos lives a group of birds called finches. There are 13 species in this group. These species have diverse ecologies--some eat seeds, some eat insects, some eat fruit, and some even eat cactus. Although the bodies of these species look fairly similar, their beaks are very different. That is because it is their beak that is adapted to these diverse ways of feeding (Figure 8.14).
The RNA synthesis or ADN transcription occurs in the nucleus and requires:
- DNA strand to act as a template.
- Enzymes, specially the RNA-polymerase.
- Ribonucleotides of Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Uracil.
This consist of three maturation of the 3'-->5' direction while the sense of RNA synthesis is 5'-->3'.
This is fulfilled because the enzyme selects the ribonucleotide whose base is complementary to the DNA chain that acts as a template, and binds it by means of a nucleotide bond, releasing a phosphate group.
