Hi everyone here's our next problem during transcription. The template strand of D. N. A. Is transcribed into. And then we've got four choices um we recall from in front of videos that DNA gets transcribed transcribed into RNA. But our answer choices give us four different types of RNA. So we want to think about which is which. So Choice A. Says T. E R N. A. T. E. R. N. A. Is the transfer RNA. We recall and this brings amino acids to the M. R. N. A. So it's not uh what the D. N. A. Is transcribed into. So not our correct answer. Choice B. Says R. R. N. A. R. RNA is ribose, omo R. N. A. And together with proteins it makes up the ribosomes. So it's not the strand that D. N. A. Is being transcribed into. So we can eliminate Choice B. And on the choice see Tracy is M messenger RNA and MRS jones is the one we want here. That is the strand the template strand of D. N. A. Is transcribed into and then is used for the template of the protein When we translate it into a new protein. So this is our correct choice choice C. M. R. N. A. And finally to be through we're going to look at choice D. Here S. I. R. N. A. S. I. Stands for small interfering RNA. Which is kind of a fun name. And that actually inhibits the expression of a specific gene and it does that by binding to a complementary nucleotide sequence on M. R. N. A. And degrading that portion of them are in a preventing it from being translated. So Choice D S i r N A is not our correct answer here. So again, the template strand of D N. A is transcribed into choice C m r n A. See you in the next video.
