In a eukaryotic cell, transcription takes place in the nucleus. During transcription, ribonucleic acids (RNA) join on a single strand of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) to copy the DNA template into messenger RNA (mRNA), which passes through the nuclear membrane to facilitate protein synthesis.References:”Essentials of Physical Anthropology” 7th ed.; Robert Jurmain, Lynn Kilgore and Wenda Trevathan; 2009.
