The mechanism for all template-directed synthesis of any type of nucleic acid involves the following:
 A) Nucleophilic attack of a 3' hydroxyl toward a nucleoside triphosphate, releasing PPi.
  B) Nucleophilic attack of a 5' hydroxyl toward a nucleoside triphosphate, releasing PPi.
  C) Nucleophilic attack of a 3' hydroxyl toward a nucleoside triphosphate, releasing Pi.
  D) Nucleophilic attack of a 5' hydroxyl toward a nucleoside triphosphate, releasing Pi.
  E) More than one of these would work, since the mechanism is not universal.
