Molecular Basis of Inheritance Question 48
48. Match the following RNA polymerases with their transcribed products :
(a) RNA polymerase I (i) tRNA
(b) RNA polymerase II (ii) rRNA
(c) RNA polymerase III (iii) hnRNA
(a) (A)-(iii),
(b)-(ii), (C)-(i)
(b) (A)-(i), (b)-(iii), (C)-(ii)
(c) (A)-(i), (b)-(ii), (C)-(iii)
(d) (A)-(ii), (b)-(iii), (C)-(i)
Show Answer
Answer : d
Hints & Solution
(d) RNA polymerase is an enzyme that is responsible for copying a DNA sequence into an RNA sequence during the process of transcription. In eukaryotes, there are three types of RNA polymerases. (i) RNA polymerase I transcribes rRNAs genes. (ii) RNA polymerase II transcribes hnRNAs. (iii) RNA polymerase III transcribes tRNAs and 5 srRNA.
