RNA polymerase I produces rRNA, II produces mRNA, and III produces tRNA; prokaryotes utilize a single RNA polymerase for all synthesis.
RNA polymerase 1 synthesizes rRNA, RNA polymerase 2 synthesizes mRNA, and RNA polymerase 3 synthesizes tRNA. In prokaryotes, a single RNA polymerase synthesizes all three RNA types.
| Front | Functions of RNA polymerase 1,2,3 what does each type synthesize? |

| Back | 1: rRNA 2: mRNA 3: tRNA NOTE: in Prokaryotes, there is only 1 type of RNA Polymerase that produces all 3 types of RNA |
