Study the diagram given below and choose the correct information that can be deduced:
   

1. The core RNA polymerase is capable of catalyzing elongation only.
2. Sigma factor and Rho factor are needed for the termination of transcription.
3. DNA Helicase opens the strand of the DNA.
4. Both strands of DNA are transcribed by the same RNA polymerase.
