What is the term that describes sequence of DNA that a restriction enzyme finds and cuts?
Template Sequence
What is the name of the enzyme that match the DNA bases?
DNA polymerase matches the bases on the parent strand.
What is serves as the template during transcription?
The process of generating an mRNA copy of a DNA molecule is called transcription. Here, an enzyme called RNA polymerase opens up the double stranded DNA and begins inserting RNA bases using DNA as the template. Every time the enzyme encounters an Adenine (A), it inserts a Uracin (U) to the growing mRNA strand. When it encounters a cytosine (C), it inserts a Guaning (G) into the growing RNA strand. This is how DNA acts as a template for mRNA
How does RNA polymerase use DNA?
it separates the DNA strands to create a template for RNA bases
