In the overview of transcription, what is the primary function of RNA polymerase in protein synthesis?
A
It transports amino acids to the ribosome by charging tRNAs with their corresponding amino acids.
B
It adds a 3′ poly(A) tail and a 5′ cap to newly made RNA as part of RNA processing.
C
It translates the mRNA codons into an amino acid sequence by forming peptide bonds at the ribosome.
