• A molecule that helps carry instructions from DNA to make proteins; it’s like a messenger and a worker for the cell.

• The process where DNA is copied into RNA, which carries the instructions to make proteins.

• Messenger RNA; it carries the genetic code from DNA to ribosomes, where proteins are made.

• Proteins that help start the transcription process by binding to DNA and guiding RNA polymerase.

• The section of DNA where transcription begins; it acts as a signal for RNA polymerase to bind and start working.
