Correct answer - B, RBA polymerase.

Why? - RNA polymerase, an enzyme in the cell, is responsible for creating mRNA from the correct gene. RNA polymerase is similar to DNA polymerase, but it makes an RNA strand rather than a DNA strand. RNA polymerase attaches to the promoter region of a DNA helix.
