Red blood cells (RBCs), are also referred to as red cells, red blood corpuscles, haematids, erythroid cells or erythrocytes, (from Greek erythros for "red" and kytos for "hollow vessel"..RBCs take up oxygen in the lungs and release it into tissues while squeezing through the body's capillaries.

Katen [24]

two steps of expression of a gene in their correct chronological order are Transcription then translation.(option a)

The process by which information from a gene is used in the synthesis of a functional gene product that enables it to produce protein or non-coding RNA end products and ultimately affect a phenotype as the final effect is known as gene expression.

It comprises two significant stages: translation and transcription, Gene expression is made up of transcription and translation working together to form a polypeptide.

The production of RNA from DNA is known as transcription. The enzyme RNA polymerase acts as the catalytic agent.
The process by which a messenger RNA's genetic code is decoded to produce a particular polypeptide chain is known as translation. A particular amino acid is specified in each genetic code.
