Question

what is one difference between the gene regulation in prokaryotes and eukaryotes? (1 point)
eukaryotes transcribe genes in response to environmental stimuli while prokaryotes transcribe genes randomly
all eukaryotes use person to organize their genes while prokaryotes do not
prokaryotes do not store their genes in a nucleus like eukaryotes do
prokaryotes removes exons from mrna before translation while eukaryotes translate the entire sequence of mrna

Explanation:

• Prokaryotes are single - celled organisms without a nucleus. Their genetic material (DNA) is in the cytoplasm. Eukaryotes have a nucleus where DNA is stored. This is a fundamental structural difference that affects gene regulation.
• Eukaryotes transcribe genes in response to various signals (not randomly). Prokaryotes also transcribe genes in response to environmental stimuli (e.g., lactose presence in E. coli for lac - operon).
• "Person" is likely a mis - term. It might be "operon". Not all eukaryotes use operons. Operons are more common in prokaryotes.
• Prokaryotes do not remove exons. Eukaryotes process mRNA by removing introns (not exons) before translation.

Answer:

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