Hey there!
Science is the study of the natural world by collecting data through a systematic process called the scientific method. And technology is where we apply science to create devices that can solve problems and do tasks. <u>Technology is literally the application of science.</u> So, it really is impossible to separate the two.
I hope this helps!
Explanation:
During translation, ribosomal subunits assemble together like a sandwich on the strand of mRNA, where they proceed to attract tRNA molecules tethered to amino acids (circles). A long chain of amino acids emerges as the ribosome decodes the mRNA sequence into a polypeptide, or a new protein.

Question: In prokaryotes, genes can exist as operons that are transcribed into a polycistronic mRNA, containing multiple genes in a single transcript. In eukaryotes, transcripts exist only as monocistronic mRNA containing a single gene. What fundamental genetic difference is responsible for this distinction?
(A) mRNA is transported outside of the nucleus in eukaryotes.
(B) Prokaryotic mRNA has a five-prime GTP cap.
(C) Prokaryotes use a single start codon for multiple genes.
(D) In eukaryotes, each gene has its own transcription initiation site
Answer:
(D) In eukaryotes, each gene has its own transcription initiation site
Explanation:
Eukaryotic mRNAs are monocistronic in nature which means that one mRNA carries the single transcript to be encoded. Each monocistronic mRNA is encoded by a stretch of a gene that has a specific initiation site to start the process of transcription. On the other hand, prokaryotes have some mRNAs that carry the code for two or more different polypeptides. These mRNAs are called polycistronic. For a polycistronic mRNA, multiple transcripts are transcribed under the single transcription initiation site.
