The central dogma of molecular biology describes the two-step process, transcription and translation, by which the information coded in DNA is used to make proteins or polypeptides.

A A represents RNA. Translation is the synthesis of an RNA copy of a segment of DNA.A represents RNA. Translation is the synthesis of an RNA copy of a segment of DNA.

B A represents RNA. Transcription is the synthesis of an RNA copy of a segment of DNA.A represents RNA. Transcription is the synthesis of an RNA copy of a segment of DNA.

C A represents protein. Translation is the synthesis of a protein using DNA as a template for the assembly of the protein.A represents protein. Translation is the synthesis of a protein using DNA as a template for the assembly of the protein.

D A represents protein. Transcription is the synthesis of a protein using DNA as a template for the assembly of the protein.

A represents RNA. Transcription is the synthesis of an RNA copy of a segment of DNA. In the central dogma of molecular biology, transcription is the process of making an RNA copy of a segment of DNA. This RNA molecule, known as messenger RNA (mRNA), carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosomes during translation, where it is used as a template for the synthesis of proteins. Therefore, A represents RNA in this context.
