Answer 11

RNA polymerase

Question 12

In central dogma, It is where the mRNA translated into protein inside the ribosome.

Answer 12

Translation

Question 13

How many protein can a eukaryotic cell produce in one mRNA.

Answer 13

one mRNA = one protein

Question 14

How many protein can a prokaryotic cell produce in one mRNA?

Answer 14

one mRNA = multiple protein

Question 15

What processes of central dogma happens inside the nucleus of Eukaryotes?

Answer 15

Duplication and Transcription

Question 16

What type of cell where the central dogma happens simultaneously?

Answer 16

Prokaryotes - due to absence of nucleus.
