Question 8 (1 point)

Why are transcription and translation not linked in eukaryotes?

Question 8 options:

eukaryotic must fold outside of the nucleus

eukaryotic mRNAs must be exported from the nucleus

eukaryotic mRNAs are more difficult to translate

eukaryotes slow the process down for greater proofreading

Question 9 (1 point)

What is typically the termination signal for transcription

Question 9 options:

A sequence of RNA that forms a hairpin

A sequence of RNA that codes for stop codon

RNA polymerase only works for a fixed length of DNA

The binding of termination proteins to the DNA

eukaryotic must fold outside of the nucleus

eukaryotic mRNAs must be exported from the nucleus

eukaryotic mRNAs are more difficult to translate

eukaryotes slow the process down for greater proofreading

Explanation / Answer

Q8.eukaryotic mRNAs must be exported from the nucleus

Eukaryotic transcription occurs in the nucleus and mRNA has to be exported for translation in the cytosol

Q9. A sequence of RNA that forms a hairpin

When RNA polymerase approaches the end of the gene during transcription, the region rich in C and G nucleotides makes a hairpin loop structure signaling termination of transcription.
