Question

Define the term Aleredity Variation and
Transcription.​

Answer 1

• Genetic variation is the difference in DNA among individuals or the differences between populations. There are multiple sources of genetic variation, including mutation and genetic recombination.

• Transcription is the process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). Transcription is carried out by an enzyme called RNA polymerase and a number of accessory proteins called transcription factors.

Answer 2

• In the simplest of words, heredity refers to the passing of traits or characteristics through genes from one generation (parent) to the other generation (offspring). ... Variation is caused due to gene mutations, the interaction of genes with the environment, and various combinations of genetic material.
• Transcription is the process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). ... The newly formed mRNA copies of the gene then serve as blueprints for protein synthesis during the process of translation.
