Answer:
Step 1: Initiation - begins at the region of the DNA called the Promoter
Step 2: Elongation - the enzyme RNA polymerase reads the unwound DNA strand and adds complimentary RNA nucleotides to create a new RNA strand.
Step 3: Termination - the process ends when the enzyme reaches a region of DNA called the stop sequence which indicates the end of the transcription.
Explanation:
Transcription is the process of synthesizing RNA moleculess from the DNA in the nucleus. Segments of the DNA that codes for genes are transcribed by the enzyme RNA polymerase, which produces a complementary, antiparallel RNA strand called a primary messenger RNA transcript which isvthen processed to a mature messenger RNA. The messenger RNA, known as mRNA, then enters into the cytoplasm where it is used to synthesize proteins.
Transcription takes place in three steps: initiation, elongation, and termination which are summarized below:
Step 1: Initiation - begins at the region of the DNA called the Promoter
Step 2: Elongation - the enzyme RNA polymerase reads the unwound DNA strand and adds complimentary RNA nucleotides to create a new RNA strand.
Step 3: Termination - the process ends when the enzyme reaches a region of DNA called the stop sequence which indicates the end of the transcription.
