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!

Which best describes a difference between transcription and DNA replication-?

Another answer could be that Transcription uses Uracil. This is the answer I got from Apex btw.


What event is not part of the process of DNA replication?

One event that is not part of the process of DNA replication is transcription. While DNA replication involves the synthesis of new DNA strands from existing ones, transcription is the process by which a segment of DNA is copied into RNA. These processes serve different purposes: replication is for cell division, while transcription is for protein synthesis.


How are transcription and replication differ?

Transcription is the process of synthesizing a complementary RNA strand from a DNA template, while replication is the process of making an exact copy of the DNA molecule. Transcription produces RNA, whereas replication produces DNA. Transcription occurs at specific genes, while replication occurs throughout the entire genome.


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.

What best describes a difference between transcription and DNA replication?

The difference between transcription and DNA replication is that transcription uses uracil.


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.


Is DNA transciption is another word for DNA replication?

They are completely different processes in the central dogma. DNA replication is the replication of DNA into DNA by DNA polymerases. Trancription is the transcription of DNA into RNA by RNA polymerase.


Is DNA transcription the same as DNA replication?

No - they are different processes, although both use a DNA template. DNA transcription is the copying of DNA to create mRNA, which is then translated into a polypeptide (protein). DNA replication creates a new strand of DNA.
