The figure shows RNA interference in a tobacco cell. Which statement about the letters is correct? (This topic is not in the NEET syllabus text.)
Fig. 1: The steps of RNA interference with letters. A is the vector that carries a nematode gene into the tobacco cell. B and C are two RNA strands made from the inserted DNA, one the sense strand and one the antisense strand. D is the double stranded molecule that they form. E is the messenger RNA of the nematode, shown cut and crossed out.
B and C are complementary strands that pair into D, and E is the nematode mRNA that is silenced
B and C are two copies of the nematode mRNA, and D is the protein that they make
B and C are the two strands of the vector, and E is the plant mRNA that is silenced
D is a single stranded RNA that copies the nematode DNA, and E is a transposon
