Answer: The option C is the right answer for the respective Question

Explanation: one should note that the genes of humans are made up of DNA, not RNA. And the RNA is present in the form of a single strand in the body and if it's in the form of double-strand , it would stop transcription or we can say that protein formation will get interrupted.
