Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gene expression involves two processes: transcription and translation. Transcription is the process of using DNA as a template to create mRNA, which carries the genetic message to be translated into a protein. Translation is the actual process of using the genetic code carried by mRNA to synthesize a specific protein. Therefore, choice E (transcription and translation) is the correct answer.
