Which statement describes the relationship between transcription and translation?

A)The proteins made during transcription are used to make RNA during translation.
B)The proteins made during transcription are used to make DNA during translation.
C)The RNA made during transcription is used to make proteins during translation.
D)The DNA made during transcription is used to make proteins during translation.

Respuesta :

The RNA made during transcription is used to make proteins during translation.


Answer: The correct option is C)The RNA made during transcription is used to make proteins during translation.

DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid) consists of genetic information in the form of nucleotides. This information is copied into a molecule of mRNA ( messanger RNA) with the help of enzyme RNA polymerase in a process, which is called as transcription. RNA contains information (in the form of codons) for the synthesis of proteins ( translation).

According to the Central Dogma, genetic information is transferred in this manner-

DNA→ RNA→Proteins

Thus, the RNA made during transcription is used to make proteins during translation.
