Best answer

Answer: 2. RNA polymerase binds with Rho factor to terminate the process of transcription in bacteria.

Check each statement.

  • Capping adds methyl guanosine triphosphate at the 5' end, not 3'. Wrong.
  • In bacteria, termination needs the Rho factor protein, which acts with RNA polymerase. Correct.
  • The template strand is copied into mRNA, not the coding strand. Wrong.
  • Split genes are characteristic of eukaryotes. Wrong.

So option 2.
