Transcription is the process of which of the following?
A
DNA → Protein
B
DNA → RNA
C
DNA → DNA
D
RNA → DNA

1
Understand the central dogma of molecular biology, which describes the flow of genetic information in cells: DNA is transcribed into RNA, and RNA is translated into protein.
Recognize that transcription is the process where the genetic information in DNA is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA).
Identify the key enzymes involved in transcription, such as RNA polymerase, which synthesizes RNA from the DNA template.
Differentiate transcription from other processes like replication (DNA → DNA) and translation (RNA → Protein).
Select the correct option that describes transcription: DNA → RNA.
