Question

level 1: identify the complementary rna bases from the dna stand:
dna: a t c g
rna:
where in the cell does transcription take place? _______________

Explanation:

Step1: Determine RNA bases from DNA

In transcription, DNA base A pairs with RNA base U, T pairs with A, C pairs with G, G pairs with C. So for DNA A, T, C, G, RNA bases are U, A, G, C.

Step2: Recall transcription location

Transcription (DNA to RNA) occurs in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells (or cytoplasm in prokaryotes, but typically nucleus for eukaryotes).

Answer:

RNA bases: U, A, G, C; Transcription location: Nucleus (in eukaryotic cells)
