Given below are two statements regarding RNA polymerase in prokaryotes. Statement I: In prokaryotes, RNA polymerase is capable of catalysing the process of elongation during transcription. Statement II: RNA polymerase associate transiently with 'Rho' factor to initiate transcription. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:The prokaryotic RNA polymerase catalyses elongation (and termination), so Statement I is true. Transcription is initiated by the RNA polymerase associating with a sigma factor, not the Rho factor (Rho factor is involved in transcription termination), so Statement II is false.
