Where does transcription and translation occur for an RNA virus?

In the host cell. The virus generally enters the host cell by carrying markers on it's surface that allows entry into the host cell. There the virus, which has it's own reverse transcriptase enzymes, uses free nucleotides in the host's cytoplasm to create a strand of DNA from the RNA template using the reverse transcriptase. Transcription. The virus then runs off another strand of DNA and, generally, inserts this into the host's DNA. When the virus is going to reproduce this double stranded insertion then transcribes a mRNA strand for the cellular machinery to translate with the cells own ribosomes. Then the virus, completed, exist the cell and generally lysis it.

The process of assembling a protein form RNA is called?
This is Transcription, and it is called mRNA
Does transcription occur in DNA or RNA?
Transcription occurs in DNA to produce mRNA.
What two processes must occur to get from a gene to a protein?
The process by which a gene is read is through transcription and occurs through the activity of an enzyme called RNA polymerase II in the nucleus. This results in the formation of molecule called messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is then translated into a string of amino acids or protein by transfer RNA (tRNA) on ribosomes outside the nucleus in the cytoplasm.
What is a non-retroviral virus?
Retroviruses are a class of RNA virus that use Reverse transcription to convert their RNA to DNA for their infection.
What is the process called when DNA is copied into messenger RNA?
Transcription.
Is the process in which DNA's genetic code is copied onto messenger RNA molecules known as translation?
Nope. Transcription first, then translation. They occur in alphabetical order. The DNA is copied into RNA in transcription. The RNA is translated into protein in translation.
The copying of the DNA code onto RNA is called?
Transcription
The process of assembling a protein form RNA is called?
This is Transcription, and it is called mRNA
What are the end results in transcription and translation?
Transcription yields a strand of messenger RNA, which then goes to the ribosomes, where it undergoes translation by transfer RNA, and the absolute end result is a protein.
What type of RNA is the final product of transcription?
Translation
What two steps must occur in protein synthesis?
The two main steps in protein syntheis are transcriptionand translation. In transcription, the enzyme RNA Polymerase uses a DNA strand as a template to make a transcript of messenger RNA. This transcript is then translated into protein by the ribosome.

What occurs during translation but not during transcription?
Transcription is the formation of mRNA from DNA whereas translation is the synthesis of protein from RNA.
What is the process called when DNA is copied into messenger RNA?
Transcription.
What is the relationship of translation and transcription in biology?
Transcription in Biology is the making of RNA using the DNA as a template. Translation is the process of translating the given sequence of a messenger RNA molecule to a sequence of the amino acids.
