Describe what happens during transcription

Transcription is when DNA segments are copied into RNA.

1. RNA Polymerase bonds to a promoter (Those cool start/stop codons)

2. RNA Polymerase breaks all the hydrogen bonds between the two stands of DNA

3. RNA Polymerase create the pair strand for one of the DNA strands (Uracil instead of Thymine!)

4. Hydrogen bonds break between the DNA strand and RNA strand

5. DNA is zipped back up and RNA either floats around in the Nucleus (if there is one) or exists through a pore
