Solution

The correct option is B transcription
A nascent RNA molecule is formed by the process of transcription. In eukaryotes, the RNA formed has a split gene arrangement and thus, requires further processing such as splicing, polyadenylation etc. The transcriptional product, that is the RNA, ultimately formed is a messenger RNA.
So, the correct option is 'transcription.
