"explain the process of transcription including the three major steps of initiation, elongation, and termination."

Initiation is when the RNA polymerase separates the strands of DNA at the site of the promoter and connects the RNA nucleotides while they base pair with the DNA template. Elongation is when the polymerase moves downward undoing the DNA and stretching the RNA transcript to the 3 prime end. As this occurs the strand begins to form a double helix. Termination is when the RNA transcript is released and the polymerase disconnects from the DNA.

mRNA molecules are synthesized from one strand of DNA.

The mRNA strand transports the DNA information for a particular gene from the nucleus of the cell to a ribosome for protein synthesis.

Once the mRNA strand directs protein synthesis, the strand is destroyed.

The transcription of a gene is controlled by the cell.

Common ancestors only exist within a single species.

puteri [66]

Answer:

It is not true to say that common ancestors occurs only within a single species rather two species with similar traits might have a common ancestor. 

Explanation:

If the ancestor is same for both the species then it is said that both the species are closely related and share common ancestor with similar evolutionary relationship.

Phylogenetic tree are drawn and studies are done to understand the ancestor of a species. The evolution has occurred from the ancestor to the new species formed.

What is the main way that active transport differs from diffusion?

Ostrovityanka [42]

As powerful as diffusion is, cells sometimes must move materials in the opposite direction—against a concentration difference. This is accomplished by a process known as active transport. As its name implies, active transport requires energy.
