Termination of transcription by eukaryotic RNA polymerase:

A.

is triggered by a stop codon
B.

is catalyzed by poly A polymerase
C.

takes place precisely at the poly adenilation signal
D.

is triggered by a transcription factor
E.

Occurs at a sequence located close to the 5' end of the template strand of the gene.

F.

is triggered by the attachment of a protein called "the release factor" to the 3' end of the template strand.
