Front

What is the role of RNA polymerase in transcription?

Back

RNA polymerase synthesizes RNA from a DNA template.

Front

What is the difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

DNA contains deoxyribose sugar and thymine, while RNA contains ribose sugar and uracil.

Front

What is the function of messenger RNA (mRNA)?

Back

mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

Front

What is the significance of the promoter region in transcription?

Back

The promoter region is where RNA polymerase binds to initiate transcription.

Front

What is the process of transcription?

Back

Transcription is the process of copying a segment of DNA into RNA.
