In a Chromosome,which of the Following is TRUE

Question

In a chromosome,which of the following is TRUE?
A)RNAs of different genes can be transcribed off either DNA strand,but always 5' to 3'.
B)RNAs of different genes can be transcribed off either DNA strand,but always 3' to 5'.
C)The RNAs of all genes are synthesized 5' to 3' off the same DNA strand.
D)The RNAs of all genes are synthesized 3' to 5' off the same DNA strand.
E)Different genes can be transcribed off either strand,some in the 5' to 3' direction and some in the 3' to 5' direction.

Accepted Answer

RNA synthesis always occurs in the 5' to 3' direction, and different genes can indeed be transcribed from either strand of the DNA, but the direction of synthesis is always the same (5' to 3').
