The correct response is:
**DNA is used as a template to produce RNA that is translated to a protein.**
DNA contains the genetic code that is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA), which then serves as a template for translation into a protein. The other statements are incorrect in the context of how protein synthesis works.
