A) What is one difference between gene regulation in prokaryotes and eukaryotes? (1 point)

Prokaryotes do not store their genes in a nucleus like eukaryotes do.
Prokaryotes remove exons from mRNA before translation while eukaryotes translate the entire sequence of mRNA.
All eukaryotes use operons to organize their genes while prokaryotes do not.
Eukaryotes transcribe genes in response to environmental stimuli while prokaryotes transcribe genes randomly.

A) Prokaryotes do not store their genes in a nucleus like eukaryotes do.

A) What would happen if a cell transcribed and translated a gene’s intron by mistake? (1 point)

Errors in the protein folding would be repaired.
Additional amino acids would be inserted into the chain.
The intron would begin to duplicate itself.
The DNA would remain the same as before.

A) If a cell transcribed and translated a gene's intron by mistake, additional amino acids would be inserted into the chain.

A) In prokaryotic cells, repressor proteins bind to a section of DNA called an operator.

A) The removal of sections of RNA, called introns, occur at which regulation step in eukaryotic cells? (1 point)

chromatin remodeling
RNA processing
mRNA life span
post-translation

A) The removal of sections of RNA, called introns, occur at the RNA processing step in eukaryotic cells.
