Answer:

Transcription

Step-by-step explanation:

DNA specifies the sequence of bases in the messenger RNA (mRNA) by a mechanism called gene transcription. Subsequently, this messenger RNA molecule specifies the polypeptide chain. This flow of genetic information (i.e. DNA > RNA > protein) is known as the central dogma of molecular biology

Answer: Genetic code

Explanation: Genetic code is defined as the relation between the sequence of the bases in DNA (or its RNA transcripts) and the sequence of amino acids in proteins.

During transcription, a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA by the enzyme RNA polymerase.
