Final answer:

DNA stores genetic code, RNA assembles amino acids into proteins through transcription and translation.


Explanation:

DNA stores the genetic code for proteins in its double helix structure, acting as a blueprint, while RNA uses this information to assemble amino acids and create proteins through processes like transcription and translation.

During transcription, DNA is copied onto mRNA, which then travels to the cytoplasm for translation in ribosomes, where tRNA reads the mRNA and attaches amino acids to form a protein chain.
