Multiple Choice

Which of the following terms best describes the process by which the information in DNA is used to synthesize RNA?

Transcription

Replication

Translation

Recombination

Verified step by step guidance

Understand the central dogma of molecular biology, which describes the flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to protein.

Identify that the process of copying the information from DNA to RNA is called transcription.

Recall that replication is the process of copying DNA to produce identical DNA molecules, not RNA.

Recognize that translation is the process by which RNA is used to synthesize proteins, not the synthesis of RNA itself.

Note that recombination involves the rearrangement of genetic material, which is unrelated to the synthesis of RNA from DNA.
