False. In prokaryotes the transcript is immediately translated into proteins. This complex has its own technical name which escapes me for the moment. There is no modification of the gene needed as it is not leaving the nucleus the prokaryote does not have.

In prokaryotes a cap and tail are placed on the ends of an mrna transcript to prevent the mrna from being broken down?

Actually, in prokaryotes, a cap and tail are not added to the mRNA transcript. Instead, prokaryotic mRNA is directly translated without modification. This is in contrast to eukaryotes, where mRNA undergoes modification at the 5' end with a cap and at the 3' end with a poly-A tail to protect it from degradation.


What eukaroytes and prokaryotes?

Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, including animals, plants, fungi, and protists. Prokaryotes, on the other hand, are unicellular organisms that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, with bacteria and archaea being the primary groups. The structural differences between these two types of cells reflect their complexity, with eukaryotes being generally more complex and organized than prokaryotes.


How many pairs form the attachment between the DNA template and RNA transcript during transcription?

During transcription, each nucleotide in the DNA template strand pairs with a complementary nucleotide in the RNA transcript, forming a total of three pairs (adenine with uracil, cytosine with guanine, and vice versa). The number of pairs formed corresponds to the length of the RNA transcript being synthesized. Thus, for every nucleotide in the RNA, there is one corresponding base pair with the DNA template strand.


Identify how the oxygen requirements of a prokaryote can affect the types of environments in which it can live?

Prokaryotes vary in their oxygen requirements, with some being strict aerobes requiring oxygen, some being anaerobes that cannot survive in the presence of oxygen, and some being facultative anaerobes that can switch between aerobic and anaerobic metabolism. This affects the types of environments they can live in, such as aerobic prokaryotes thriving in oxygen-rich environments like open air or ocean surfaces, while anaerobic prokaryotes can be found in environments like deep soils, deep-sea vents, or the human gut, where oxygen levels are low or absent.


List of differences bw prokaryotes and eukaryote?

The major difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is the presence, in eukaryotes, of a cell nucleus. This nucleus contains the DNA, bound in chromosomes, of eukaryotic cells, where it is transcribed to mRNA which is cut and spliced before being passed to the ribosomes for protein synthesis. There are about 80 subunits in the ribosomes. Prokaryotes. on the other hand have a different structure in their DNA and also contain small pieces of DNA called plasmids. There is no cutting and splicing of the mRNA and there are only about 70 subunits in the ribosomes.

What criteria determine what makes a transcript official?

An official transcript is determined by criteria such as being issued directly from the school, containing a school seal or signature, and being in a sealed envelope to maintain its authenticity.


Is nuclear membrane found in cells?

No it does not, reason being prokaryotes do not contain a nucleus.


What IRS transcript show?

An IRS transcript is a transactional report of your tax return for a particular year. You can request a transcript is you don't have a copy of your tax return so that you will know what you filed. These can also be ordered online by tax preparers if they have the ability to do so by being set up with the IRS for such transactions.

The root script in transcript means?

In a transcript, the term "root script" typically refers to the base or main script that serves as the foundation for the dialogue or conversation being transcribed. It may contain the essential information, dialogue, or key points of the interaction.


How does the absence of a nuclear envelope in the prokaryotes prevent prokaryotes from controlling gene expression by modifying RNA after transcription?

In eukaryotes, mRNA is processed inside the nucleus before being shipped out into the cytoplasm for translation. Specifically, a strand of pre-mRNA (or immature mRNA) has a GTP cap added to its 5' end, a poly-adenine tail added to its 3' end, and it has its introns spliced out. Since prokaryotes don't have nuclear envelopes, they don't have an area to do this.
