Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which nucleic acids are directly involved in transcription?
A
mRNA and one DNA strand
B
mRNA and both DNA strands
C
tRNA and both DNA strands
D
tRNA and one DNA strand
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The main enzyme involved in transcription is RNA polymerase, which uses a single-stranded DNA template to synthesize a complementary strand of RNA.

Detailed explanation-2: -The process by which DNA is copied to RNA is called transcription, and that by which RNA is used to produce proteins is called translation.

Detailed explanation-3: -In biology, the process by which a cell makes an RNA copy of a piece of DNA. This RNA copy, called messenger RNA (mRNA), carries the genetic information needed to make proteins in a cell. It carries the information from the DNA in the nucleus of the cell to the cytoplasm, where proteins are made.
