Copying the genetic code is called DNA replication. It relates to DNA in that DNA carries the genetic code.

Transcription
The first step in creating a protein is transcription - the copying of the code from DNA to mRNA. (The section of DNA must unwind before this can happen).
mRNA
Replication is the term used to describe the process of copying DNA. Or perhaps transcription.
Transcription is the process of copying the code from DNA to mRNA.
A mutation, usually a point mutation (where a single 'letter' in the genetic code is changed).
transcription
The DNA carries a digital code in bases that enable with no loss of information

The result of variations DNA copying is that the DNA copies generated will be similar but not identical to the original
replication
Transcription
The purpose of copying DNA is that, after mitosis, each daughter cell each has a complete set of DNA and is genetically identical.
Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl show how new DNA is made by copying the old.
