Question
There are several reasons why the primase used to make the RNA primer for DNA replication is not a suitable RNA polymerase for gene transcription.
Which of these statements is not one of those reasons?
Primase initiates RNA synthesis by associating with a single-stranded DNA template.
Primase can initiate RNA synthesis without the need for a base-paired primer.
Primase synthesizes only RNAs of about 5
