Here's a breakdown:
* DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) contains the genetic code.
* RNA (ribonucleic acid) acts as a messenger to carry the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes where proteins are synthesized.
* Transcription is the process where a DNA sequence is used as a template to create a complementary RNA molecule. This is carried out by an enzyme called RNA polymerase.
