Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is synthesized as a copy of a gene from the DNA template strand during transcription. The other choices (ribosomal RNA, transfer RNA, primer RNA, and ribozymes) are also involved in gene expression, but they are not synthesized as copies of genes during transcription.
