Protein synthesis & mutation Test review

Where does TRANSCRIPTION occur?

• Nucleus

• Ribosome

• Cytoplasm

• Mitochondria

Why must transcription occur where DNA can be found?

• because DNA can't leave

• because ribosomes are in the nucleus

• because DNA polymerase is found there

• because helicase unzips the DNA
