what is gene expression? What are the two stages of gene expression? What happens during those two stages?

Gene expression is the process by which information stored in DNA is used to direct the synthesis of a specific gene product. This synthesis takes place in two stages: transcription and translation.

Explanation:

Gene expression is the process that makes it possible to obtain proteins from genes. Genes are nucleotide sequences of DNA that encode the information necessary for protein synthesis. This synthesis takes place in two stages: transcription and translation. Transcription takes place in the nucleus and in it one of the two strands that make up the double strand of DNA serves as a template for a specific sequence to be copied into a single stranded RNA molecule. Subsequently, this RNA leaves the nucleus and carries the message - the nucleotide sequence - to the ribosomes, hence the name of messenger RNA (mRNA). Translation is a cytoplasmic process in which the mRNA molecule is decoded to generate a specific chain of amino acids, called a polypeptide (the protein). The correspondence between nucleotides (mRNA) and amino acids (protein) is what is called the genetic code.

it takes hundreds of years to become stable.

if you have another question lmk.

blue stars have the highest surface temp

stellar distances are usually expressed in light-years

the measure of a star's brightness is called magnitude

hope this !
