Detailed explanation-1: -It involves copying a gene’s DNA sequence to make an RNA molecule. Transcription is performed by enzymes called RNA polymerases, which link nucleotides to form an RNA strand (using a DNA strand as a template). Transcription has three stages: initiation, elongation, and termination.
Detailed explanation-2: -The enzyme that converts DNA into mRNA is called RNA polymerase, which attaches to the DNA double helix as shown here. Once attached, RNA polymerase can unwind the helix and begin copying one of the DNA strands to form an mRNA transcript of the gene.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer. Answer: the corresponding sequence on RNA is UAACUG.
Detailed explanation-4: -If one strand of a DNA molecule has the sequence of bases 5’ATTGCA3’, the other complementary, antiparallel strand of DNA would have the sequence: 5’TGCAAT3’.
