The diagram below shows a section of double-stranded DNA undergoing both transcription and replication. RNA polymerase (gray oval) is bound to the transcriptional template strand and moving from left to right (arrow). The resulting RNA transcript is also shown (dotted line) with limited base pairing to the template strand. The DNA sequence is specified for a portion of the double-stranded DNA. E A ATGC B TACG C D RNA transcription DNA replication a. Indicate whether point C is a 5' end or a 3' end of a nucleic acid. b. Indicate which strand (upper or lower) is the template for lagging strand synthesis c. Indicate the nucleotide sequence of the RNA that was transcribed from the DNA region specified by the sequence. Label the 5' and 3' ends of this sequence.
