The correct Answer is:
To solve the assertion and reason question, we need to analyze both statements and determine their correctness. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states: "Sigma factor of RNA polymerase recognizes the start single region in prokaryotes." - The sigma factor is a protein that associates with RNA polymerase to facilitate the initiation of transcription in prokaryotes. It helps the RNA polymerase to bind to the promoter region of the DNA, which is crucial for starting the transcription process. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states: "Promoter region lies at 5' of template strand." - The promoter region is indeed located at the 5' end of the template strand in DNA. This is where RNA polymerase, along with the sigma factor, binds to initiate transcription. The promoter is essential for the correct positioning of RNA polymerase to start synthesizing RNA. 3. **Evaluating the Statements**: - Both the assertion and the reason are correct. The sigma factor does recognize the start signal (the promoter region) in prokaryotes, and the promoter region is located at the 5' end of the template strand. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since both statements are true, we conclude that the assertion and reason are both correct and related to each other. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) are correct. Therefore, the correct answer is that both statements are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. ---

When the polymerase reaches the terminator region, the nascent RNA and enzyme are released by which polyeptide molcule?

A : RNA polymerase is of three types in eukaryotes for the synthesis of all types of RNAs. R : RNA polymerase consists of six types of polypeptides along with rho factor which is involved in termination of RNA synthesis.

Refer to the given figure and consider the following statements regarding it . I. A is present at the 5' end of the template strand . II. B is antisense strand having 3'rarr5 ' polarity III.
