Given below are two statements: Statement I: RNA interference takes place in all Eukaryotic organisms as method of cellular defense. Statement II: RNAi involves the silencing of a specific mRNA due to a complementary single-stranded RNA molecule that binds and prevents translation of mRNA. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.RNA interference operates in all eukaryotic organisms as a defense mechanism against invading genetic elements (viruses, transposons), so Statement I is true. RNAi involves the binding of a complementary RNA molecule to a specific mRNA, silencing it and preventing its translation, so Statement II is also true.
