Q

What is transcription?

A

Moving RNA from DNA

17
Q

What does RNA polyamerase do

A

unzip the DNA & brings in new nucleotides

18
Q

What does promoter sequence on DNA do?

A

says where to begin

19
Q

What does one strand of DNA do?

A

Acts as the template

20
Q

How many strands of of RNA come from a strand of DNA

A

1

21
Q

When RNA is edited where does it go?

A

It leaves the nucleus

22
Q

Where does the final edited RNA go?

A

Leaves the nucleus and goes to cytoplasms(ribosome)
