What happens right before transcription begins?

Biology

Ahat [919]3 years ago

Transcription is the transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA, and it happens in the nucleus.  We can automatically rule out B.  B is incorrect because it doesn't make sense; how can a process stop before it even begins?

A.  I believe this is incorrect because mRNA is involved when the genetic information needs to leave the nucleus.  mRNA would take it to a ribosome outside of a nucleus.  Since transcription happens in the nucleus, mRNA is irrelevant before it starts.

C.  This doesn't really make sense.  mRNA carries information from the DNA, but not vice versa (in these early stages).

D.  This would make the most sense, since RNA polymerase needs to attach to the promoter on the strand before transcription can begin.

Degger [83]

Answer:

Answer is A. B-hemoglobin mRNA is translated more efficiently than is a-hemoglobin mRNA.

Explanation:

The introduction of electric charge into a gel or fluid, causing or resulting in the movement of the charged particles in the gel or fluid, is referred to as the electrophoresis. It can also be explained as a separation method or technique which is based on the movement of particles or ions in an electric field.

The electrophoresis is used in separating DNA fragments , RNA or protein, based on their size and charge.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Peahens often choose males for the quality of their trains -- the quantity, size, and distribution of the colorful eyespots. Experiments show that offspring of males with more eyespots are bigger at birth and better at surviving in the wild than offspring of birds with fewer eyespots.
