Which statement summarizes the main steps of transcription?

A. RNA polymerase binds to DNA, makes mRNA using DNA as a template, and then detaches.

B. mRNA travels to a ribosome, where rRNA and tRNA use the mRNA to build a polypeptide.

C. tRNA binds to rRNA, makes mRNA using rRNA as a template, and then detaches.

Final answer:

The main steps of transcription involve RNA polymerase binding to DNA, synthesizing mRNA using the DNA template, and processing the mRNA for translation.


Explanation:

Transcription is the process of creating RNA from a DNA template. During transcription, RNA polymerase binds to the DNA at a specific site called a promoter, unwinds the DNA strands, and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand using the antisense DNA strand as a template. The newly formed mRNA is then processed and transported to the ribosome for translation.
