Question
In eukaryotic cells, after transcription, the mRNA
- Eukaryotic transcription is carried out in the nucleus of the cell and proceeds in three sequential stages: initiation, elongation, and termination. Eukaryotes require transcription factors to first bind to the promoter region and then help recruit the appropriate polymerase
- Is processed before leaving the nucleus
- Enters the nucleus
- Is replicated before leaving the nucleus
Hint:
After the transcription of DNA to mRNA, translation or the reading of these mRNAs to make proteins begins.
The correct answer is: Is processed before leaving the nucleus
- Eukaryotic transcription is carried out in the nucleus of the cell and proceeds in three sequential stages: initiation, elongation, and termination.
- Eukaryotes require transcription factors to first bind to the promoter region and then help recruit the appropriate polymerase.
