In eukaryotes, RNA polymerase II transcribes:
ArRNA (28S, 18S, 5.8S)
BtRNA and 5S rRNA
CHeterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA, the precursor of mRNA)
DsnRNAs only
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA, the precursor of mRNA)
**RNA Pol I → rRNAs (28S, 18S, 5.8S)**. **RNA Pol II → hnRNA (pre-mRNA)**. **RNA Pol III → tRNA, 5S rRNA, snRNAs**. Division of labour absent in bacteria.
