Question

Which of the following correctly defines transcription?

A. the making of a new DNA molecule by paring bases of DNA nucleotides with complementary bases in an existing molecule.

B. the making of an RNA molecule from a DNA by the paring of nucleotides with complementary bases in DNA.

C. the making of a polypeptide with a specified order of amino acids using a DNA molecule to provide the sequence information.

D. the making of a polypeptide with a specified order of amino acids using a RNA molecule to provide the sequence information.

Answer 1

I would say is b. The answer

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is Option B.

Explanation:

Translation is the first process in gene expression. It is defined as the process in which DNA molecule gets converted into RNA with the help of an enzyme known as RNA polymerase.

As we know that both RNA and DNA are polymers of nucleic acids. In this process, they both use base pairs of nucleotides with complementary bases.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.
