The formation of an mRNA molecule occurs through a process called transcription. During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase binds to a specific region of DNA and synthesizes a complementary strand of RNA by reading the DNA template strand. This newly formed mRNA strand undergoes processing, which includes capping, polyadenylation, and splicing, before it is transported out of the nucleus for translation into a protein.
In genetics, translation is the process in which the sequence of codons on a mRNA molecule are translated into a sequence of amino acids by tRNA, which results in a protein. This process occurs on ribosomes in the cytoplasm and the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
The process of making an mRNA copy of a gene is called transcription. During transcription, the DNA of the gene is used as a template to synthesize a complementary mRNA molecule. This mRNA molecule carries the genetic information from the gene to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.
During transcription, an enzyme called RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region of the DNA molecule. The polymerase then unwinds the DNA double helix and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand using one of the DNA strands as a template. This process results in the formation of a single-stranded RNA molecule that carries the genetic information encoded within the DNA onto mRNA.
When DNA unzips during transcription, messenger RNA (mRNA) matches up with the exposed DNA template strand by pairing complementary nucleotides. Adenine (A) in the DNA pairs with uracil (U) in the mRNA, while thymine (T) pairs with adenine (A), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). This process results in the formation of a single-stranded mRNA molecule that carries the genetic information needed for protein synthesis.
The process wherein messenger RNQ (or mRNA) is given a message is called transcription. In this process, n mRNA molecule is made (or transcribed) using DNA as the template. Essentially, the nucleotide sequence on a gene is read by an enzyme called RNA polymerase which synthesizes the mRNA molecule. Put simply, RNA polymerase scans the length of DNA until a gene is encountered. When the enzyme reaches the correct position, it begins adding complimentary nucleotides to make the mRNA molecule. This way, the entire gene is transcribed and copied on to the mRNA molecule.
The mRNA molecule is completed by the formation of phosphodiester bonds between the RNA nucleotides during the process of transcription. This results in a single-stranded molecule that carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

A tRNA binds to an mRNA molecule at the ribosome during the process of protein synthesis.
DNA technically isn't copied but transcribed, i.e. copied into a different format, so we called the process transcription. The results of this process is that an mRNA molecule is created that heads out to the ribosomes to be translated into a protein.
In genetics, translation is the process in which the sequence of codons on a mRNA molecule are translated into a sequence of amino acids by tRNA, which results in a protein. This process occurs on ribosomes in the cytoplasm and the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

The site where RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA molecule to start the formation of mRNA is called a promoter region. This region contains specific nucleotide sequences that signal the start of transcription.
Transcription
Transcription is the formation of mRNA from DNA whereas translation is the synthesis of protein from RNA.
No, transcription involves the formation of mRNA.
