Answer:

In prokaryotes (organisms without a nuclear membrane), DNA undergoes replication and transcription and RNA undergoes translation in an undivided compartment. All three processes can occur simultaneously.

   In eukaryotes (organisms with a nuclear membrane), DNA undergoes replication and transcription in the nucleus, and proteins are made in the cytoplasm. RNA must therefore travel across the nuclear membrane before it undergoes translation. This means that  transcription and translation are physically separated. The primary transcript, heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA), undergoes extensive post-transcriptional processing to make a messenger RNA (mRNA)molecule that can pass through the nuclear membrane.

If the cell body of a pns neuron survives when an axon is damaged, axon filaments can extend peripherally from the injured site
Julli [10]
The statement above is TRUE.
The peripheral extension of an axon filament from an injured site toward an original target is an example of axonal regeneration. Axon regeneration in the matured mammalian central nervous system is very limited after injury. But axonal regeneration is still possible in some instances such as the one given in this question.
