Prokaryotes differ from eukaryotes in terms of cell complexity.

<h3>Differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes</h3>

Prokaryotes refer to living organisms whose bodies are made from prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotes, on the other hand, are organisms made from eukaryotic cells.

Prokaryotes differ from eukaryotes in the following ways:

  • Prokaryotes lack a nucleus while eukaryote organisms have one or more nuclei. The genetic materials of prokaryotes are arranged as nucleoids and lie freely within the cytoplasm.
  • In terms of size, prokaryotic cells range from 0.1 to 5 micrometers. Eukaryotic cells range from 10 to 100 micrometers.
  • Prokaryotic cells usually have cell walls. Some eukaryotic cells have cell walls, while some do not.
  • The ribosome size of prokaryotes is around 20 nm while that of eukaryotes varies from 25 nm to 30 nm.
  • In terms of evolutionary advancement, eukaryotes are more advanced than prokaryotes.

The correct answer is c. 3 ' hydroxyl of deoxyribose.  
<span>
During the DNA synthesis via PCR, polymerization occurs in 5’-3’ direction. This means that enzyme DNA polymerase which synthesizes a new DNA strand is complementary to the DNA template strand (3’-<span>5’ direction). 5’ phosphate group of the free nucleotides which are added is attached to the 3'-hydroxyl group at the end of the elongating DNA strand.</span></span>

Why do scientists prefer to have more than one theory about something
Advocard [28]

Having one theory is setting a limit on your potential and the potential of the overall theory and subject you are working on. Having multiple theories gives you a broader idea and perspective of what is going on, and even though one may slightly contradict the other, it is okay because that is what theories are for.

To the point, scientists usually have more than one theory so that they can gain a broader perspective on the matter and maybe even increase the chance of being correct on the matter.


Hope this was helpful.

Cheers,
