Transcription is the modification of a strand of RNA prior to the manufacture of a protein O manufacture of two new DNA double helices that are identical to an old DNA double helix O manufacture of a strand of RNA complementary to a strand of DNA O manufacture of a new strand of DNA complementary to an old strand of DNA O manufacture of a protein based on information carried by RNA

Transcription is the manufacture of a strand of RNA complementary to a strand of DNA.
Adi S.
Transcription is similar to DNA replication in that: 1. it requires a DNA helicase to unwind the DNA. 2. it uses the same enzyme as that used to synthesize RNA primers during DNA replication. 3. the newly synthesized RNA remains paired to the template DNA. 4. nucleotide polymerization occurs only in the 5' to 3' direction. 5. an RNA transcript is synthesized discontinuously and the pieces are then joined together.
