Accepted Answer

All right. Hello everyone. So this this question is asking us which of the following processes correctly matches its description. And here we have three statements to analyze. Now we also have four different answer options labeled a through D proposing which statements which statement or statements are accurate from these three. So let's just go ahead and analyze them individually. Starting off with the first that says that translation is when amino acid chains are isolated from proteins to create a template for RN A synthesis. Now based on this description, recall that statement, one is actually incorrect and it's almost the opposite of what actually happens because in translation, what's happening is that the Mrna molecule is serving as a kind of guide, right, the Mrna sequence has coons that each are going to produce one amino acid. So during translation, a protein is eventually formed because the MRN A codes for a polypeptide sequence and then that polypeptide undergoes folding to create the finished protein. So statement one is not true. Now, statement two says that replication is when a segment of RN A is copied to produce two identical DNA molecules. This is not true because like the name replication implies. We're not going from RN A to DNA or vice versa. Rather we're taking a DNA template and using that to create more DNA. So we're replicating the DNA, we are copying the DNA last but not least though we have statement three, which says the transcription is when a segment of DNA is used as a template to produce a complementary RNA strand. This is correct, right? Because recall, the transcription goes before translation and transcription is when you take DNA and use that to create the MRN a template that's later used in translation. So because of the way that this process is done, right, the resulting MRN A that's single stranded is complementary to the DNA template. So here our answer is going to be B in the multiple choice because only statement three is correct. And so with that being said, thank you so very much for watching. And I hope you found this helpful.
