Solution

The correct option is B

Protein synthesis


One strand of DNA serves as a template for the synthesis of new DNA during replication and RNA in transcription. In translation, however, RNA forms a template for protein synthesis, Hence, the correct answer is protein synthesis, as DNA is not involved directly.
