Elongation of the RNA Strand
• As RNA polymerase moves along the DNA, it
untwists the double helix, 10 to 20 bases at a

Replication, Transcription, Translation
These examples
demonstrate the
ability of genes from
one species to be
expressed in a
different species.
This is possible
because of which
property of the
genetic code?
Transcription
Describe what is
occurring at each of
the stages of
transcription (1, 2, 3
in the figure).
How does each stage
move the process
forward?
Eukaryotic Promoters
What is represented at
each of the lettered sites,
and what occurs at each
of these sites during
translation?
tRNA
