The structure labeled W in the context of the transcription process likely refers to mRNA (messenger RNA). The main purpose of mRNA is to carry instructions for protein synthesis from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, where proteins are synthesized. Therefore, the correct answer is:
**Carrying instructions for protein synthesis**.
**Carrying instructions for protein synthesis**.
