| RNA pol I |
makes rRNA |
| proteins are made... |
in the cytoplasm |
| RNA pol II |
makes mRNA |
| three differences bw DNA and RNA |
DNA uses deoxyribose instead of ribose; DNA uses thymine instead of uracil; DNA is double stranded while RNA is usually single |
| RNA pol III |
makes tRNA |
| transformation |
the genetic alteration of a cell resulting from the uptake, genomic incorporation, and expression of foreign genetic material inheritable genetic combo |
