Compare and contrast the process of DNA replication to RNA transcription?

DNA replication means that the entire strand of DNA is copied. You end up with two double stranded DNAs that are full length. The four bases that make up DNA are A,T,G & C. Transcription is the copying of just a small section of DNA. From ChaCha!

∙ 11y agoDNA replication first unzipped and then goes to a process called DNA polymerase that forms new nucleotide complementary to the base of the unzipped DNA. once its filled in, it will return to the helical formation of the DNA.
protein synthesis is the formation of the amino acid in ribosome.

∙ 11y agoDNA replication: the DNA splits in half, breaking the hydrogen bonds in the middle, and then other nitrogen bases that are floating around in the atmosphere bond to each side corresponding to their matches.
RNA transcription: basically the same thing, except instead of thymine bonding with each adenine of each original helix, its uracil. and also the new sides dont stay connected, they break off and leave the nucleus.

What term is used to describe the the process of copying DNA?
Replication is the term used to describe the process of copying DNA. Or perhaps transcription.
DNA passes information to RNA during what process?
The process of transcription.
New mRNA is made through a process of?
transcription translation replication
How does transcription differ from DNA replication Describe at least four differences?
DNA replication produces a complimentary DNA strand. Transcription produces a complimentary mRNA strand. The major enzyme that carries out DNA replication is DNA Polymerase III (in prokaryotes). The major enzyme that carries out transcription is RNA Polymerase. DNA replication results in two copies of the DNA. Transciption does not affect the DNA - it simply re-anneals (re-joins) after the process. In DNA replication the complementary base to A is T. In transcription the complementary base to A is U.
The process of transcription is similar to the process of DNA?
Replication and transcription involves a parental DNA strand that is the foundation on which the products are built on.Replication and transcription both have initiation step which involve the breakage of the parental DNA strand.Replication and transcription both have specific proteins that keep the polymerase molecule attached to the parental DNA strand. There are elongation factors for transcription and sliding clamp for replication.Both processes use DNA topoisomerases to relieve supercoiling.Both processes only proceed in the 5' to 3' direction.Replication and transcription both involve the addition of specific 3' endings. In replication, it is the addition of the GGGTTA sequence by telomerase. In transcription, it is the addition of the poly-A tail.Both processes used nucleotides as the language on which the daughter strands come from.Replication and transcription involve the hydrolysis of a phosphodiester bonds to begin their process.Both processes take place in the nucleus.

The process of transcription.
What transcription similar to in the process of DNA?
replication
Which is true for the process of transcription but not DNA replication?
masterbation
New mRNA is made through a process of?
transcription translation replication
What process makes a copy of a DNA molecule?
Transcription.
What nitrogen base is found during the process of transcription that is NOT found during the process of replication?
The Gulf War
What process begins when DNA unzips?
DNA replication or the translation/transcription process begins when a Helicase moves down a DNA strand and unzips it to allow for replication.
Does transcription require DNA?
No, Transcription does not require Replication to take place first. Transcription is simply the process of making mRNA from DNA so that the ribosomes have directions to make proteins. Replication is the complete copy of the genetic material in the host chromosome which would occur before the cell divides.
DNA transcription is another word for DNA replication?
No, transcription and replication are different. DNA replication is the process where one double helix of DNA is duplicated into two identical double helixes which are also identical to the mother DNA. RNA transcription is the process by which a messenger RNA copy of the active strand of a DNA helix is created.I hope that helps.
Difference between DNA replication and transcription?
1. Replication is the duplication of two-strands of DNA. Transcription is the formation of single, identical RNA from the two-stranded DNA. 2. There are different proteins involved in replication and transcription. 3. In replication, the end result is two daughter cells, while in transcription, the end result is a protein molecule. 4. In transcription, DNA serves as the template for RNA synthesis.
