In eukaryotic species, three separate RNA polymerases transcribe different categories of genes. RNA polymerase III is known to transcribe primarily: A) messenger RNAs. B) protein-encoding genes. C) most ribosomal RNAs. D) transfer RNAs and small nuclear RNAs. E) genes responsible for DNA replication.

Eukaryotic protein-coding genes differ from their prokaryotic counterparts in that only eukaryotic genes $a$ are double-stranded. $b$. are present in only a single copy. $c .$ contain introns. d. have a promoter. $e .$ transcribe mRNA.
