Understand that gene expression involves multiple steps, including the synthesis of RNA from DNA and the synthesis of proteins from RNA.
Identify that the process where an RNA molecule is synthesized using a DNA template is the first step in gene expression.
Recall the definitions of the options: DNA replication is copying DNA to DNA, translation is synthesizing proteins from mRNA, and RNA splicing is modifying RNA after it is made.
Recognize that the process of synthesizing RNA from a DNA template is called transcription.
Conclude that transcription is the correct term for the process described in the problem.
