protein synthesis, translation. and transcription. Some viruses contain RNA instead of DNA. These viruses have an enzyme called reverse transcriptase. The virus then uses the host cell to produce DNA from the RNA using reverse transcriptase.

What is the RNA of a plant cell?

The RNA in a plant cell consists of different types of RNA molecules such as messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These molecules play key roles in protein synthesis, gene regulation, and other cellular processes in plants.


What processes use RNA?

There are three stages where RNA transcription occurs. They are initiation, chain elongation, and termination. All are very important in the cell.


Is small RNA is a type of RNA?

Yes, small RNA is a type of RNA that is typically 20-30 nucleotides in length. It plays important roles in gene regulation and silencing processes. Examples of small RNAs include microRNAs and small interfering RNAs.
