B. helicase

C. ligase

D. RNA polymerase

The letter X in the diagram below represents what enzyme used in the process shown A DNA polymerase B helicase C ligase D RNA polymerase class=

Respuesta :

Answer: Option D. RNA polymerase.

Explanation:

  • Transcription is the process which is used to produce RNA from a DNA template.
  • The enzyme involved in the process of transcription is RNA polymerase which is responsible for separating the DNA strands and making an RNA which is complementary to the DNA.
  • RNA polymerase joins the nucleotides in the newly formed RNA strands by utilizing the energy released from the cleavage of the additional phosphate bonds that are removed by it.
  • The RNA polymerase dissociates from the DNA only after the process of transcription is complete.
