Which methods is utilized by eukaryotes to control their gene expression that is different from the type of control found in bac
Damm [24]

Answer:

Method which is utilized by eukaryotes to control their gene expression that is different from the type of control found in bacteria is control of both RNA splicing and chromatin remodeling.

Explanation:

There is a difference in the gene expression of the prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, transcription and translation occur simultaneously in the cytoplasm, and gene regulation occurs at the transcriptional level. In eukaryotes gene expression is regulated during transcription and RNA processing, which take place in the nucleus, and during protein translation, which takes place in the cytoplasm.

Prokaryotic cells can only regulate gene expression by controlling the amount of transcription. As eukaryotic cells evolved, the complexity of the control of gene expression increased. For example, with the evolution of eukaryotic cells came compartmentalization of important cellular components and cellular processes. A nuclear region that contains the DNA was formed. Transcription and translation were physically separated into two different cellular compartments. It therefore became possible to control gene expression by regulating transcription in the nucleus, and also by controlling the RNA levels and protein translation present outside the nucleus.

crimeas [40]
Miller Urey experiment mimics the environment we had for earth billion of years ago. They put in inorganic molecules and came out with organic molecules. Other scientist thought that they messed up their experiment, but once other scientists recreated and tested. They saw that Miller and Urey were correct. And that helped them see that the origin of life can come from simple cells.

Why was the purple loosestrife able spread so rabidly?
insens350 [35]
<span> Purple loosestrife is a very hardy perennial which can rapidly degrade wetlands, diminishing their value for wildlife habitat. Wetlands are the most biologically diverse, productive component of our ecosystem. Hundreds of species of plants, birds, mammals, reptiles, insects, fish and amphibians rely on healthy wetland habitat for their survival.</span>
