What is this process called and where does this occur in the eukaryotic cell? b) Take the template strand through the process of transcription. What is the resulting strand called and where does this process occur in a eukaryotic cell. c) Take the template strand through the process of translation including the location in the cell. You should finish with a polypeptide chain.
