Q. Assertion: During transcription, one DNA template forms one RNA strand, identical to itself. Reason: Transcription helps in the formation of double stranded RNA for efficient protein synthesis.
A) Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B) Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not correct explanation of assertion.
C) Assertion is true, but reason is false.
