|
|
in transcription, RNA is formed; in translation, a polypeptide is formed
|
|
|
transcription starts at the promoter; translation begins at the start codon
|
|
|
in transcription, DNA binds to mRNA; in translation, codons bind to anti-codons
|
|
|
in transcription, C pairs with G and A pairs with T to make mRNA; in translation, A pairs with U and G pairs with C to make tRNA

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell uses the genes to synthesize proteins. This is a two-step process. The first step is transcription in which the sequence of one gene is replicated in an RNA molecule. The second step is translation in which the RNA molecule serves as a code for the formation of an amino-acid chain (a polypeptide).
Detailed explanation-2: -The Central Dogma in eukaryotic cells In eukaryotes (organisms with a nuclear membrane), DNA undergoes replication and transcription in the nucleus, and proteins are made in the cytoplasm. RNA must therefore travel across the nuclear membrane before it undergoes translation.
Detailed explanation-3: -Definition. 00:00. … Central dogma. The central dogma of molecular biology is a theory stating that genetic information flows only in one direction, from DNA, to RNA, to protein, or RNA directly to protein.
