Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which process turns DNA into mRNA?
A
rRNA
B
tRNA
C
Translation
D
Transcription
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Transcription is the process by which DNA is copied (transcribed) to mRNA, which carries the information needed for protein synthesis. Transcription takes place in two broad steps. First, pre-messenger RNA is formed, with the involvement of RNA polymerase enzymes.

Detailed explanation-2: -In the first step, the information in DNA is transferred to a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule by way of a process called transcription.

Detailed explanation-3: -The process of transcription begins when an enzyme called RNA polymerase (RNA pol) attaches to the template DNA strand and begins to catalyze production of complementary RNA.
