Transcription is the second stage of central dogma of life (1. replication, 2. <u>transcription</u>, 3. translation).
During transcription, DNA (which is already replicated) is transcribed to RNA. This is because, the genetic information is present within nucleus and thus it is required to be transported outside the nucleus in order to perform key enzymatic functions. Therefore, transcription takes place and the genetic information travels outside in the form of RNA, where ribosomes decode this message to form proteins. The ribosomes make proteins (translation) required for enzymatic functions.
Transcription is a biological process through which a gene sequence is copied from DNA to messenger RNA which is responsible for carrying necessary information for the production of protein.
The RNA polymerase then uses the given information and duplicates it to form a new complementary RNA molecule.
Therefore the synthesis of RNA is known as transcription.
Chromosomes, which contain DNA, have several functions. All BUT ONE of these statements is a function of chromosomes. A) Chromosomes determine the traits of an organism. B) Chromosomes provide instructions to make proteins.
After the orginal trand has been seperated in DNA replication, the tRNA's bring together an amino acid, strands wind tightly together -corresponding base pairs are laid, and lastly, the bases are proofread for any errors.
