Answer:
b. one strand of nucleic acid serves as a template for synthesis of another.
Explanation:
Replication is the process of synthesis of new DNA molecules using the existing DNA strands as a template.
Transcription is the process of synthesis of RNA using the template DNA strand to copy its nucleotide sequence.
Both replication and transcription use existing DNA strands as a template to make new strands of nucleic acids. Both processes occur inside the nucleus.
