A) Transcription start site
B) Termination site
C) Control site
D) Restriction site

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The operator and the promoter are parts of the DNA that interact with regulatory proteins to control the rate of transcription, and they are collectively referred to as control sites. These sites do not constitute parts of the RNA polymerase itself but are rather regions on the DNA where RNA polymerase and other proteins bind to initiate or regulate transcription.
