Solution

The correct option is B Translation
Transcription is the process of RNA synthesis using DNA template strand by addition of ribonucleotides to 3’ hydroxyl end of primer; it is carried out by RNA polymerase in nucleus. Translation is the synthesis of polypeptide/ protein by polymerization of amino acids using mRNA sequence as template; it is carried out on ribosomes and tRNA serves to carry amino acids from cell pool to mRNA. Transduction is transfer of genetic material from one strain to another via viral particles. The virus infects bacteria and released viral particles carry part of bacterial genetic material which is then transferred to next host bacterium. Rearrangement of chromosomal segment between two nonhomologous chromosomes is called as translocation.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
