Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: In eukaryotes there are three RNA polymerases in the nucleus in addition to the RNA polymerase found in the organelles.
Statement II: All the three RNA polymerases in eukaryotic nucleus have different roles.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
• B. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
• C. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
• D. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Eukaryotic cells possess three distinct nuclear RNA polymerases (I, II, III) responsible for transcribing various RNA types. Additionally, mitochondria and chloroplasts each contain their own RNA polymerases. Therefore, both assertions are accurate.
