BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -During transcription, a piece of DNA that codes for a specific gene is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA) in the nucleus of the cell. The mRNA then carries the genetic information from the DNA to the cytoplasm, where translation occurs.

Detailed explanation-2: -The process of Transcription takes place in the cytoplasm in prokaryotes and in nucleus in eukaryotes. It uses DNA as a template to make an RNA (mRNA) molecule. During transcription, a strand of mRNA is made that is complementary to a strand of DNA .

Detailed explanation-3: -Transcription occurs in the nucleus and not in the cytoplasm in eukaryotes because eukaryotes store the DNA in the nucleus. In prokaryotes, there is no nucleus and the DNA is in the cytoplasm. Thus, transcription can occur in the cytoplasm as well.

Detailed explanation-4: -Thus, in eukaryotes, while transcription occurs in the nucleus, translation occurs in the cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-5: -Transcription occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotic organisms, while translation occurs in the cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum. Both processes occur in the cytoplasm in prokaryotes. The factor controlling these processes is RNA polymerase in transcription and ribosomes in translation.
