One strand of RNA is transcribed from each of the two unzipped strands of DNA during transcription. RNA polymerase synthesizes a complementary RNA strand to one of the DNA strands.
The DNA molecule must first unwind and separate into two strands. This process is called transcription, during which RNA polymerase can then read and transcribe one of the DNA strands to synthesize RNA.
A infectious agent composed of a simple strand of RNA with no protein component is called a viroid. Viroids are smaller and simpler than viruses, consisting only of a short, circular RNA molecule. They can infect plants and disrupt their normal growth processes.
RNA polymerase*the ending "ase", shows that it's an enzyme.
RNA typically consists of a single polynucleotide strand.
RNA primers.
The sections of DNA that get copied into RNA strands during transcription are called genes. These RNA strands are then used as templates to make specific proteins during translation.

Long chains of amino acids are called polypeptides.

Long strands of RNA that are complementary to one strand of DNA are called messenger RNA (mRNA). During the process of transcription, RNA polymerase synthesizes mRNA by using one strand of DNA as a template, creating a complementary RNA sequence. This mRNA then carries the genetic information from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes, where it is translated into proteins.
