Both transcription and DNA replication are essential and significant genetic mechanisms.

Transcription is a process where the genetic material i.e. DNA is getting converted or transcribed to RNA by an enzyme RNA polymerase.

Whereas the DNA replication is a process where, doubling or copying of DNA from original DNA (identical replica copies). Which is the basis for biological inheritance.
