Question
distinguish between: Transcription and Translation.

Answer

Transcription:

  1. In the process of transcription, the sequence of nucleotides present on the DNA molecule is copied
    and carried to the cytoplasm by mRNA.
  2. The process of transcription takes place in nucleus.
  3. During transcription, RNA is produced from DNA.
  4. Only mRNA takes part in transcription.

Translation:

  1. In the process of translation, the specific amino acids are picked up according to the codons brought by mRNA.
  2. The process of translation takes place in ribosomes located in cytoplasm.
  3. During translation, proteins are produced with the help of RNA.
  4. mRNA, tRNA and rRNA take part in translation.
