Identify the correct statements about transcription(Tnx) and (Tnl) translation in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. A. Prokaryotes conduct Tnx and Tnl together in the same cellular compartment.
B. Eukaryotes do Tnx in the nucleus and Tnl in the cytoplasm.
C. Tnx and Tnl occur together in the cytoplasm of Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes.
D. Tnx and Tnl both occur in the nucleus in eukaryotes and prokaryotes.

A and B

Explanation:

The correct statements about transcription and translation would be that prokaryotes conduct transcription and translation together in the same cellular compartment and eukaryotes do transcription in the nucleus and translation in the cytoplasm.

Prokaryotes generally lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles and as such, their genetic materials lie freely within the cytoplasm. Hence, transcription and translation take place within the same cellular compartment, which is the cytoplasm.

Eukaryotes, however, have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondrion. Their genetic materials lie majorly in the nucleus. Hence, transcription takes place within the nucleus. Thereafter, the transcribed mRNA is transported to the cytoplasm where they get attached to ribosome and tRNA and translated into proteins.

The correct options are A and B.

an individual’s sex (i.e., whether they are a male or female) is determined by the sex chromosomes. most people have two sex chromosomes, one that is inherited from their mother and one that is inherited from their father. typically, females have two x chromosomes (xx) and males have one x chromosome and one y chromosome (xy). conditions caused by changes (“mutations”) in genes located on the x chromosome are considered x-linked.

x-linked recessive inheritance

most x-linked conditions are recessive. this means that in a person with two x chromosomes (most females), both copies of a gene (i.e., one on each x chromosome) must have a change or mutation whereas in a person with one x chromosome (most males), only one copy of a gene must have a mutation. a female with a mutation in one copy of a gene on the x chromosome is said to be a “carrier” for an x-linked condition. a male with a mutation in a gene on the x chromosome is typically affected with the condition. because females have two copies of the x chromosome and males have only one x chromosome, x-linked recessive diseases are more common among males than females. however, x-linked recessive diseases can occur in both males and females.

for x-linked recessive disorders, an unaffected carrier mother who has a mutation in a gene on the x chromosome can transmit either the x chromosome with this mutation or a “normal” x chromosome to her children. if the father is unaffected, none of her daughters will be affected and all of her daughters will be unaffected—since they will inherit at least one normal x chromosome from their father. however, each daughter will have a 50% chance of being an unaffected carrier like her mother and a 50% chance of both x chromosomes being normal.
