Your teacher gives you this model of transcription. Choose the statement that best describes the role of DNA in transcription.
1 answer:
Answer:
C
Explanation:
A)
DNA directs the synthesis of RNA.
B)
DNA splits into two strands of RNA.
C)
A strand of DNA is used as a template for the formation of RNA.
D)
Two strands of RNA are formed by copying each of the strands of DNA.
The correct answer would be that <u>a strand of DNA is used as a template for the formation of RNA.</u>
<em>Transcription is a process during which RNA is synthesized using DNA as a template. The coding strand of the DNA is utilized as a template for the formation of messenger RNA. During this process, the double helix structure of the DNA is unwound by an enzyme and the coding strand is bound by a short DNA strand at the beginning of a gene while another enzyme adds RNA nucleotide bases to elongate the short strand.</em>
The correct option is C.
