It uses DNA as a template to make an RNA molecule. RNA then leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome in the cytoplasm, where translation occurs. It is the transfer of genetic instructions in DNA to messenger RNA (mRNA). During transcription, a strand of mRNA is made that is complementary to a strand of DNA.

D. mRNA is synthesized from a strand of DNA.


Transcription, hence the root script, means to write. This is the creation of the mRNA "messenger" information.
