Question
Chapter 11.1, Problem 3R
Summary Introduction
To review:
The reason for more complexity of cell division and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) replication in the eukaryotes than in prokaryotes.
Introduction:
All cells divide and form new cells except few. The division of the cell involves four major steps, which are initiation of division, replication of DNA, segregation of DNA, and cytokinesis. It is fast and simple in prokaryotic organisms, whereas it is a complex process in the eukaryotes.

- does DNA replication occur in prokaryotes?arrow_forwardWhich is true of Prokaryote cells? A) Because their DNA exists in a nucleoid area, the synthesis of proteins depends on random interactions between mRNA and rRNA, B) They contain membrane-bounded compartments or organelles. C) A true nucleus contains the DNA in the form of chromosomes D) Some contain mitochondria E) They contain many organelles in the cytoplasmarrow_forwardWhich term among A-D is not correctly matched with its definition? A) O Slime layer: loose assemblage of polysaccharide material external to the cell envelope B) O Polysome or polyribosome formation: multiple ribosomes binding to a messenger RNA transcript C) O Replisome: two of these complexes working in opposite directions are needed to copy the bacterial chromosome D) O Nucleoid: cytoplasmic area containing the bacterial chromosome E) OA-D are all correctly matchedarrow_forward
