In prokaryotes, RNA synthesis and protein synthesis takes place in the cytoplasm. In eukaryotes, RNA is produced in the cells nucleus and then moves to the cytoplasm to play a role in the production of protein.

∙ 8y agoIn eukaryotic cells the transcription stage of protein synthesis takes place in the nucleus and translation stage of protein synthesis takes place in the cytoplasm
whereas
in prokaryotic cells the synthesis of protein takes place only in the cytoplasm because prokaryotic cells do not have a well defined nucleus.

Does photophosphorylation occur in only prokaryotes?
No, it takes place in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
What process takes place in the Ribosome?
Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis. This is where mRNA is read and a sequence of amino acids are joined together to form a polypeptide/protein.
Where does protein synthesis take place in the cell?
Endoplasmic reticulum because ribosomes are present in it OR we can also say the cell organelle ribosomes because they are sites of protein synthesis
Why is the S-phase called the synthesis stage?
Because protein synthesis is taking place.
Where specifically does the most significant production of ATP occur in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells can yield a maximum of 38 ATP molecules while eukaryotic cells can yield a maximum of 36. In eukaryotic cells, the NADH molecules produced in glycolysis pass through the mitochondrial membrane, which "costs" two ATP molecules.
Where does protein synthesis in prokaryotes take place?
In the cytoplasm.
Does photophosphorylation occur in only prokaryotes?
No, it takes place in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
How does the coiling of DNA affects the active and inactive genes in eukaryotes?
Coiling= unactive Uncoiling= active because the DNA needs to be uncoiled for protein synthesis to take place
Where does protein synthesis take place within the cell?
Protein Synthesis takes place in the ribosomes and in the mitochondria of a cell.
Where does the protein synthesis take place?
On the ribosomes in the cytoplasm of the cellRibosomes
What process takes place in the Ribosome?
Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis. This is where mRNA is read and a sequence of amino acids are joined together to form a polypeptide/protein.
Where does protein synthesis take place in the cell?
Endoplasmic reticulum because ribosomes are present in it OR we can also say the cell organelle ribosomes because they are sites of protein synthesis
Protein synthesis takes place?
Mainly in the cytoplasm. As ribosomes are present attached to Endoplasmic reticulum(ER), here also protein synthesis takes place.
Function of free ribosomes?
Protein synthesis is taken place. Ribosomes provide surface for it
Why is the S-phase called the synthesis stage?
Because protein synthesis is taking place.
Where does trancription occur?
Transcription is the process of formation of RNA. It takes place in nucleus in eukaryotes and in nucleoid in bacteria or prokaryotes .
Where in a cell does protein synthesis take place?
In cells protein is made when the cells mate and then the synthesis takes place. It takes place in the mitochondria.
