Question

Difference between eukaryotes and prokaryotic transcription

Answer 1

Answer:

Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic Transcription

Prokaryotic Transcription Eukaryotic Transcription

Transcription and translation occur simultaneously                          Transcription and translation don’t occur simultaneously.

Prokaryotic transcription occurs in the cytoplasm                                                           Eukaryotic transcription occurs in the nucleus and translation occurs in the cytoplasm.

RNAs are released and processed in the cytoplasm                                         RNAs are released and processed in the nucleus

RNA polymerases are a complex of five polypeptides.                                                                RNA polymerases are a complex of 10 -15 polypeptides.

Doesn’t require any proteins or other factors for the initiation of transcription Requires proteins known as transcription factors for the initiation.

Answer 2

The primary distinction between these two types of organisms is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not. ... The nucleus is only one of many membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotes. Prokaryotes, on the other hand, have no membrane-bound organelles.
