Word Roots and Origins The word transcription is
derived from the Latin scribere, which means "to
write." The prefix trans means "across." Using
this information, explain why the term transcrip
tion is a good name for the blological process It
describes.

Transcription is the second step in central dogma of molecular biology. First step is replication, second is transcription, and third is translation.

In the transcription phase, DNA, which is already replicated, is transcribed to mRNA which is required to make proteins in the translation phase. The root words say it is a combination of "across" and "write". This means that DNA is going to be written in a new language "mRNA". So, this term has been used in biological process because it is the re-writing across the whole DNA to make a completely new strand of mRNA.

Hope it helps.

mountains can affect the climate of nearby lands. in some areas, mountains block rain, so that one side of a mountain range may be rainy and the other side may be a desert. much of airborne moisture falls as rain on the windward side of mountains.
