Question

Identify the statement(s) about RNA polymerases.
I. separates the two strands of DNA apart
II. add RNA nucleotides together
III. bind to promoter regions of the DNA to begin transcription

• A. I only
• B. II only
• C. III only
• D. II and III are both true
• E. All of the above are true

Answer 1

The correct option is C III only

RNA polymerase is the enzyme of transcription that binds to the promoter region of DNA during transcription initiation and adds ribonucleotides to synthesize RNA using the base sequence of template DNA strand. Thus, the correct answer is option E.
