C)replication
D)posttranscriptional modification

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Translation is the process in which a ribosome assembles a polypeptide chain based on the sequence of nucleotides in the mRNA molecule. Transcription is the process by which mRNA is made from DNA, replication is the process by which DNA is copied, and posttranscriptional modification refers to any changes made to the mRNA molecule after it is transcribed.
