35.Reverse transcriptase is A. RNA dependent RNA polymerase B. DNA dependent RNA polymerase C. DNA dependent DNA polymerase D. RNA dependent DNA polymerase
Option D. Reverse transcriptase is an RNA dependent DNA polymerase enzyme which means it uses RNA primers to synthesize DNA molecules. Reverse transcriptase enzyme used to generate complementary DNA (cDNA) from an RNA template by the process called reverse transcription. Retroviruses contain reverse transcriptase enzyme which converts their RNA genome into cDNA that can be incorporated into the host genome. So, the correct answer is 'RNA dependent DNA polymerase'.
