The correct answer is:
RNA is synthesized by RNA polymerase that reads one strand of DNA. RNA polymerase reads DNA 3' to 5'. When RNA is made, it is made 5' to 3'. Most polymerases have the 3' to 5' "reading" activity. The created RNA strand is identical to the coding strand of DNA, which is also in the orientation of 5' to 3'.
Yes, RNA polymerase reads the DNA template strand in a 3' to 5' direction during transcription.
RNA polymerase reads the DNA template strand in the 3' to 5' direction during transcription.
RNA polymerase reads the DNA template strand in the 3' to 5' direction during transcription.
DNA polymerase catalyzes the reactions that are responsible for synthesizing new DNA strands in the 5' to 3' direction. The parent DNA strand is read in the 3' to 5' direction but the daughter strand is extended in the opposite direction.
During DNA replication, DNA polymerase moves along the template strand in the 3' to 5' direction.

During DNA replication, DNA polymerase moves along the template strand in the 3' to 5' direction.
RNA polymerase moves along the DNA template strand in the 3' to 5' direction, synthesizing a new RNA strand in the 5' to 3' direction.
During DNA replication, polymerase moves along the template strand in the 3' to 5' direction, synthesizing the new strand in the 5' to 3' direction. This is because DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides to the 3' end of the growing strand.
DNA polymerase moves along the DNA strand in the 3' to 5' direction during replication by adding new nucleotides to the growing strand in a continuous manner. It reads the template strand in the 3' to 5' direction and synthesizes the new strand in the 5' to 3' direction. This process ensures accurate replication of the DNA molecule.
The enzyme DNA polymerase synthesises strands in the 5 prime to 3 prime direction, and as DNA is antiparallel the replication of the leading strand occurs from the 3 prime end of the template to the 5 prime end of the template.
The template strand (DNA) is read by RNA polymerase in the 3'-5' direction. First, RNA polymerase binds to an A-T rich promoter on the DNA which is upstream from the site of translation. Because A-T bonds are weaker than C-G bonds, the double helix opens up at this point and RNA polymerase begins translation. While translaing the DNA template strand, it creates a complementory mRNA strand and thus the Mrna will read 5'-3' with new bases being added at the 3' end.
DNA replication occurs in the 5' to 3' direction. This means that new nucleotides are added to the growing strand at the 3' end, while the template strand is read in the opposite direction, from 3' to 5'. This directionality is essential for the accurate synthesis of DNA and is facilitated by the enzyme DNA polymerase.
A replication fork is the mechanism by which a strand of DNA is synthesized. If you can imagine a strand of DNA unwound, then it would resemble a ladder. Unzip the DNA and it now looks like a fork, ie fork in road, not eating fork. There is a Leading strand, which is synthesised easily. USing DNA polymerase which 'reads' along the strand in the 3' to 5' direction on the strand, producing a replication strand in the 5' to 3' direction. The opposite strand is called the lagging strand, and this is slightly more complicated. DNA polymerase cannot read in the 5' to 3' direction on the template strand. Thus DNA primase is used to read the strand and replicate small RNA segments, called Okazaki fragments. The lagging strand has no been copied into many small strands of RNA, or Okazaki fragments. Next DNA polymerase comes along and replaces all the RNA nucleotides with DNA nucleotides. ANd finally DNA ligase 'stitches' all the small fragments into one long strand.
