Transcription in bacteria differs from transcription in a eukaryotic cell because __________________________. (a) RNA polymerase

(along with its sigma subunit) can initiate transcription on its own. (b) RNA polymerase (along with its sigma subunit) requires the general transcription factors to assemble at the promoter before polymerase can begin transcription. (c) the sigma subunit must associate with the appropriate type of RNA polymerase to produce mRNAs. (d) RNA polymerase must be phosphorylated at its C-terminal tail for transcription to proceed.

The correct answer is: (a) RNA polymerase (along with its sigma subunit) can initiate transcription on its own.

More differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic transcription:

• In prokaryotes transcription occurs in the cytoplasm (unlike in eukaryotes in nucleus) and it is simultaneous with translation,

• In prokaryotes there is only one type of RNA polymerase (in eukaryotes there are three types of them).

• There is no sigma subunit in eukaryotes, the initiation of transcription begins thanks to initiation factors.

• Promoter region in prokaryotes contains pribnow box, while in eukaryotes it contains TATA and CAT box.

After examining the fossil record, scientists have determined that scorpions today are much smaller than their extinct ancestors
BabaBlast [244]

Answer: C. scorpions have changed as a result of natural selection

Explanation:

The text tells us that scorpions today are now smaller than they were in the past. This means that the scorpions have changed since then i.e. they have evolved.

The primary reason for evolution is natural selection which refers to a situation whereby only the organisms that are better adapted in their species survive.

The conclusion that can be drawn from this research therefore is that we have smaller scorpions today because they stood a better chance of survival than the larger ones and so survived whilst the larger ones died out.

Who were the people left out of the postwar boom? How do you account for their exclusion?
Anna11 [10]
<h2>African Americans </h2>

Explanation:

African Americans  were the people left out of the postwar boom

  • African Americans and women were entitled to the same benefits as white men under the GI Bill, but often faced difficulty trying to claim their benefits due to discrimination
  • Those who did manage to get benefits were often steered towards training for menial jobs
  • The frustration of African American veterans barred from participating in the postwar economic boom became a major motivating factor in the Civil Rights Movement
