Transcription Is the process of making an RNA copy of a DNA gene

Explanation:

Transcription is the cellular process for which the information contained in one DNA strand of the double helix is used as template to synthesize an RNA molecule. Transcription uses an RNA polymerase (RNA Pol) to synthesize diverse types of RNA species including, for instance, mRNA, transference RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), etc. Moreover, different Transcription Factors (TFs) are also recruited during the initiation of the transcription which bind to the DNA strand in particular elements named promoters. The formation of the initiation complex (i. e., RNA Pol + TFs) is known as the initiation of transcription, which is subsequently followed by the elongation and, finally, the termination of this process.
