The correct option is A RNA synthesis is always in the 5' - 3' direction
In transcription, as in DNA replication, nucleotides are added on to the 3' OH of the growing chain so RNA synthesis is always in the 5' - 3' direction. Unlike DNA synthesis, a primer is not needed for initiating a new strand. RNA contains U instead of T, and U base pairs with A and is inserted opposite A (not T) in the template.
