Respuesta :

Stores information as genes

copy information as replication

Transmit information as transcription

Explanation:

The sequence of nucleotides in a DNA that codes for the specific proteins or RNA in an organism is referred to as gene. Genes are the bead like structure present on chromosomes. These carry the genetic information of the individual.

Replication: It is a process by which a new strand ds DNA is formed from the parent strand. Replication is very important as the amount of DNA gets doubled and in cell division when two daughter cells are formed the DNA gets equally divided in the two cells.

Replication occurs in the nucleus by enzyme DNA Polymerase enzyme primarily. the initiation sites are recognized and replication bubble is formed and the synthesis of DNA follows.

Transcription: It is the process by which DNA gets converted to mRNA and subsequently to protein. The DNA undergoes transcription and primary transcript is formed. After the RNA splicing in which non coding region like intron is removed and the mRNA containing exons go for translation in the cytoplasm of the cell. The enzyme used in RNA polymerase.
