Question

During transcription, ________.

A) DNA is synthesized from DNA in the nucleus
B) RNA is synthesized from DNA in the nucleus
C) RNA is synthesized from DNA in the cytoplasm
D) protein is synthesized from RNA in the nucleus
E) protein is synthesized from RNA in the cytoplasm

Answer 1

During transcription, RNA is synthesized from DNA in the nucleus. Hence the correct answer is option B

Step-by-step explanation:

During transcription, RNA is synthesized from DNA in the nucleus. DNA is housed within the nucleus, and protein synthesis takes place in the cytoplasm. To facilitate protein synthesis, messenger RNA (mRNA) is created by using DNA as a template. This mRNA carries a copy of the genetic code from the nucleus to the ribosome in the cytoplasm, where it is used to produce proteins.

Hence the correct answer is option B
