The absence of a terminator in transcription will result in the creation of a virus a strand of mrna that lacks its cap and tail the production of a longer rna molecule the production of a shorter rna molecule

The absence of a terminator in transcription will result in the production of a longer RNA molecule.

Explanation:

The terminator is entitled to stop the synthesis of a particular type of RNA. If the terminator is not present at a particular site, then this will eventually lead to the elongation of RNA until another termination site is detected. Hence, option C is correct.

Other options like option D are not correct because lack of a terminator will not have any reason to produce a shorter RNA molecule. Option A is false because n RNA cannot be formed by the absence of a terminator.
