Question
- the diagram below represents the beginning and end products of a process that occurs in the nucleus of a cell. which process does the diagram represent? clear all synthesis translation transcription replication
Brief Explanations
- Transcription is the process of copying a segment of DNA (which has bases like A - T, C - G) into RNA (which has bases like A - U, C - G). In the diagram, we can see a transition from a strand with T (characteristic of DNA) to a strand with U (characteristic of RNA).
- Synthesis is a very broad term and not specific to the DNA - to - RNA conversion shown.
- Translation occurs in the cytoplasm (not the nucleus as indicated in the question) and involves converting mRNA to proteins.
- Replication would result in two DNA strands (both with A - T, C - G base - pairing), not an RNA strand.
