What's the difference between transcription and translation

Transcription it has to do with making a written copy of some thing and also in biology it has to do with the DNA and the translation with the process by which a molecule specifies the linear sequence of amino acids on a ribosome

Transcription is when the Dna is being copied by the mRNA

Translation is when the mRNA is turning the DNA into another "code". So the t RNA can drop off the right protein.
