Understand the process of DNA transcription, which is the synthesis of RNA from a DNA template.
Identify the role of enzymes involved in DNA and RNA synthesis: DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA, helicase unwinds the DNA double helix, and DNA ligase joins DNA fragments.
Recall that RNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for synthesizing an RNA strand by reading the DNA template during transcription.
Recognize that RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region of the DNA and moves along the template strand, adding complementary RNA nucleotides.
Conclude that among the given options, RNA polymerase is the enzyme that synthesizes RNA during transcription.
