'RNA is transcribed and translated in the cytoplasm', 'transcription produces an mRNA ready for translation' and 'RNA is proofread for errors' occur in prokaryotes, whereas '5′ cap, 3' poly-(A) tail and RNA splicing' occur in eukaryotes.

The prokaryotic cells (e.g., bacterial cells) do not contain cell nuclei, thereby the messenger RNA (mRNA) must be transcribed and translated in the cytoplasm.

During prokaryotic transcription, the RNA transcript is proofread for errors. In bacteria, DNA polymerases proofread the transcript by using their 3’ → 5’ exonuclease activity.

In eukaryotic cells, RNA processing consists of several mechanisms:

  • A 7-methylguanosine cap (5′ cap) is added to the 5′ end of the precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA).

  • A 3' poly-Adenine (A) tail is added to the 3' end of the pre-mRNA.

  • Both the 5′ cap and 3' poly-(A) tail protect the RNA transcript from its degradation by exonucleases.

  • Eukaryotic RNA splicing consists of the removal of non-coding regions called 'introns' and subsequent splicing of the protein-coding regions called 'exons'.

cestrela7 [59]

The leaders of the earliest philosophers were Socrates and Aristotle. This led the thinkers who arrived at the conclusion regarding the Primary Entity.

<h3>What was the proof for the conclusion of the Primary Entity?</h3>

Their logic for arriving at the above conclusion that "the primary entity (arche) always persists)" was that, since nothing can be completely annihilated or truly generated from the origin, but each returns to it's origin if they are destroyed, then it means that the primary entity must always persist.

In simple language, nothing is either destroyed or created.
