The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding which enzymes catalyze the synthesis of rRNA and tRNA in eukaryotes, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Types of RNA**: In eukaryotic cells, there are several types of RNA, including ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA). Each type of RNA has a specific function in the cell. 2. **Identify the Role of RNA Polymerases**: In eukaryotes, RNA synthesis is carried out by different types of RNA polymerases. Specifically: - **RNA Polymerase I** is responsible for synthesizing rRNA. - **RNA Polymerase II** is responsible for synthesizing mRNA and also tRNA. 3. **Determine the Correct Answer**: Since the question asks about the synthesis of both rRNA and tRNA, we need to identify which RNA polymerases are involved: - rRNA is synthesized by RNA Polymerase I. - tRNA is synthesized by RNA Polymerase II. 4. **Select the Correct Option**: The correct answer to the question is the option that includes both RNA Polymerase I and RNA Polymerase II, as they are responsible for the synthesis of rRNA and tRNA, respectively. ### Final Answer: The synthesis of rRNA and tRNA in eukaryotes is catalyzed by **RNA Polymerase I and RNA Polymerase II**. ---
