The right answer is B) promoter .

I would like to point out, however, that the stop codon is similar to a red light in the translation process, whereas the sponsor represents a green light in the transcription process

The promoter of a gene is a short DNA sequence, generally located upstream of it, which controls the expression, in particular by regulating its transrciption (DNA copy to RNA).
