Terms transcription and translation in biology are generally related to the DNA and its properties. Human cells replicate. In order to do that, they have to produce the same constituents for the new cell that is to be made. The only way to do that is by producing proteins.

The proteins are produced in the process that is called protein synthesis. The first step is in the nucleus where a particular gene is being expressed so it enables all protein factors to come and to replicate that part of a chromosome. This is finished when mRNA, the same single-stranded genetic code of a particular gene, is formed. This is transcription.

Right after that, the mRNA enters the cytoplasm through nuclear pores. There, it could be translated into proteins by ribosomes. This process is called translation.

 

Hence, Transcription occurs in the nucleus, whereas translation occurs in the cytoplasm.

Three years in the making, it's estimated to have cost the Chinese government around 1 billion yuan (or US$144 million).The bridge is going to cut travel times between Liupanshui in the Guizhou province and Xuanwei in the Yunnan province to two hours instead of the current five – as long as you don't mind the heights.The bridge crosses the the Nizhu river, and to give you some idea of the size of the drop down to the water below, it's almost 2 Eiffel Towers or one-and-a-half Empire State Buildings.
