Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transcription is the process that occurs when the double strands of a DNA segment separate and RNA nucleotides pair with DNA nucleotides.

Answer: A 
 mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome during protein synthesis.

Answer: B 
 tRNA (transfer RNA) is responsible for carrying amino acids to the ribosome for protein synthesis to occur.

Answer: D 
 Translation is the process of protein synthesis where the ribosome reads the mRNA and assembles a chain of amino acids to form a protein.

Answer: E 
 RNAi (RNA interference) is a biological process in which RNA molecules inhibit gene expression or translation by neutralizing targeted mRNA molecules.
