During transcription, this type of ribonucleic acid is responsible for copying the DNA and brining it out of the nucleus.

• tRNA

• mRNA

• rRNA

• dRNA

Put the following steps of transcription in the correct order

• The termination sequence is transcribed and the RNA polymerase falls off.

• mRNA leaves the nucleus through a nuclear pore.

• Transcription factors and RNA polymerase bind to the promoter region (TATA box).

• RNA nucleotides are added to the 3’ end of the growing strand of mRNA.

• RNA polymerase pulls the double helix strands apart to reveal the nucleotide sequence of the template strand.
