Which statement/s is/are TRUE about transcription? A. During transcription, DNA polymerase binds to RNA and separates the DNA strands. B. RNA polymerase uses one strand of DNA as a template to assemble nucleotides into a strand of RNA. C. RNA polymerase binds only to DNA promoters, which have specific base sequences. D. Promoters are signals in RNA that indicate to RNA polymerase where to begin transcription. E. Transcription occurs in the 3’ to 5’ direction with respect to the growing mRNA strand.
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
