Expert Solution
Step 1

Genetic information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins. This is also known as the central dogma of molecular biology. 
Transcription is the process by which a segment of DNA is transcribed into an RNA molecule. This RNA molecule is used to encode proteins through the process of translation. Transcription uses an enzyme called RNA polymerase to transcribe the DNA into RNA.
