Which of the following statement is correct about $DNA$ polymerase?
A
$DNA$ polymerase can synthesize $mRNA$ in the $3 ' to 5 '$ direction.
B
$DNA$ polymerase can synthesize $DNA$ in the $5 ' to 3 ' $ direction.
C
$DNA$ polymerase can synthesize $mRNA$ in the $5^{\prime}$ to $3 ' $ direction.
D
$DNA$ polymerase can synthesize $DNA$ in the $3^{\prime}$ to $5^{\prime}$ direction.
Solution
