Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ribosomes are not required for transcription. Transcription is the process of synthesizing RNA from DNA template. RNA polymerase is an enzyme that helps in the synthesis of RNA from DNA template. DNA provides the template for RNA synthesis. Uracil nucleotides are complementary to the DNA template and are used to synthesize RNA. Ribosomes are involved in translation, the process of synthesizing proteins from RNA.
