Given below are two statements: Statement I: In prokaryotes, the positively charged DNA is held with some negatively charged proteins in a region called nucleoid. Statement II: In eukaryotes, the negatively charged DNA is wrapped around the positively charged histone octamer to form nucleosome. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Given below are two statements : Statement I: The process of copying genetic information from one strand of the DNA into RNA is termed as transcription. Statement II : A transcription unit in DNA is defined primarily by the three regions in the DNA, i.e., a promotor, the structural gene and a terminator. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
