During transcription, a fragment of DNA is used as template to synthesize a complementary mRNA molecule. Subsequently, this mRNA is in turn used as a template to synthesize a protein by a process called translation.
Transcription is a molecular mechanism by which a fragment of DNA (e.g., a gene) is used as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA sequence, usually a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence.
Subsequently, this mRNA sequence is then used as a template to produce a polypeptide chain in the ribosomes by a process called translation.
According to the base complementarity rules, Adenine always pairs with Thymine, whereas Guanine always pairs with Cytosine.
In RNA, Thymine (T) bases are replaced by Uracil (U).
the process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed and diversified from earlier forms during the history of the earth.
