Select the correct statements regarding the process of transcription in eukaryotes. (i) The strand of dsDNA which takes part in transcription process is called as coding strand. (ii) The enzyme RNA polymerase can catalyse polymerisation only in one direction i.e. , 5' rarr 3' . (iii) An unusual nucleotide methyl guanosine triphosphate is added to the 5' end of hnRNA during capping. (iv) During tailing process, adenylate residues (200-300) are added at 3' end in a template independent manner.
