Question

The flow of genetic information is controlled by a series of biochemical reactions that result in the production of proteins, each with its own specific order of amino acids. Choose the series of biochemical reactions in the correct order from the options presented here.

(a) replication, transcription, translation.
(b) replication, translation, transcription.
(c) translation, transcription, replication.
(d) translation, replication, transcription.

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

As with DNA replication, partial unwinding of the double helix must occur before transcription can take place, and it is the RNA polymerase enzymes that catalyze this process. ... The DNA molecule re-winds to re-form the double helix. In the first step, transcription, the code in the DNA is copied to a different nucleic acid, RNA. In the second step, translation, the nucleic acid code in RNA is changed into a new form: amino acids. This step is called translation because the nucleic acid language is being "translated" into the protein language.
