In a ’transcription unit’, the ’terminator’ is located towards the:
Show Hint
The terminator in transcription is located at the 3’ end of the coding strand, signaling the end of RNA synthesis.
Updated On: Feb 20, 2025
- 3’ end of the template strand
- 5’ end of the template strand
- 5’ end of the coding strand
- 3’ end of the coding strand
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
In transcription, the ’terminator’ sequence is located at the 3’ end of the coding strand. This is where the transcription process stops, and the newly synthesized RNA transcript is released.

- A school is organizing a debate competition with participants as speakers and judges. \[ S = \{S_1, S_2, S_3, S_4\} \] where \(S = \{S_1, S_2, S_3, S_4\}\) represents the set of speakers. The judges are represented by the set: \[ J = \{J_1, J_2, J_3\} \] where \(J = \{J_1, J_2, J_3\}\) represents the set of judges. Each speaker can be assigned only one judge. Let \(R\) be a relation from set \(S\) to \(J\) defined as: \[ R = \{(x, y) : \text{speaker } x \text{ is judged by judge } y, x \in S, y \in J\} \]
