Detailed Solution
If both strands are copied during transcription, then two complementary RNA strands will be produced simultaneously. These would have the tendency to form double-stranded RNA and if these two RNA strands do not form double helix these would code for two different types of proteins. Then, the whole exercise of transcription would be futile.
