"But some creatures have just a single cell, like an amoeba. They
are called unicellular organisms. Other creatures, like us human
beings, are collections of cells. These are called multicellular
organisms. Multicellular organisms can range in size from brown
algae to large animals like elephants and whales, which have
trillions of cells."
What can be concluded about cells based on this information?
A Unicellular organisms were once part of collections of cells.
B. Cells in multicellular organisms are stronger than unicellular organisms.
C. Cells can only support life if they are part of a multicellular organism.
D. Some cells can support life independently. Other cells support life collectively

D. Some cells can support life independently. Other cells support life collectively

Explanation:

Unicellular organisms are able to support their own life without the support of more than 1 cell. While some organisms needs multiple cells to function.

step 1: initiation

initiation is the beginning of transcription. it occurs when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

step 2: elongation

elongation is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

step 3: termination

termination is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
