What is the copy of the DNA segment?

The copy of a DNA segment refers to the process of transcription, where a specific segment of DNA is used as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA strand. This RNA copy, known as messenger RNA (mRNA), carries the genetic information from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, where it guides protein synthesis. In some contexts, the term may also refer to the replication of DNA, where the entire DNA molecule is duplicated to ensure that each new cell receives an identical copy during cell division.
