Transcription: This is the process where RNA polymerase synthesizes RNA from DNA. It's like the construction phase in our analogy.
Promoter: This is a region of DNA that initiates transcription of a particular gene. It's like the 'start' sign on our blueprint.
Template Strand: This is the strand of DNA that RNA polymerase reads to synthesize RNA. It's like the specific part of the blueprint being followed by our construction worker.
