DNA copies itself through a process known as: (A) Replication (B) Translation (C) Transcription (D) Integration (A) Replication DNA copies itself through a process known as replication. DNA is used as a template to generate RNA in a process known as: (A) Replication (B) Translation (C) Transcription (D) Integration (C) Transcription DNA is used as a template to generate RNA in a process known as transcription. Protein is generated using RNA as instructions in a process known as: (A) Replication (B) Translation (C) Transcription (D) Integration (B) Translation Protein is generated using RNA as instructions in a process known as translation. Compare Polymers and Monomers. Polymers are made up of individual sub-units called monomers. True or False? DNA, RNA, and protein are all linear polymers. True. The structure of DNA, RNA, and protein is similar in that they are all linear polymers because each individual unit (or monomer) is attached to only one or two other units, resulting in a long chain. What monomers make up DNA? RNA? Protein? The monomers that make up DNA are known as deoxyribonucleotides. The monomers that make up RNA are known as ribonucleotides. The monomers that make up protein are known as amino acids.
