Transcription occurs in the and translation occurs in the of a eukaryotic cell. a. nucleoid; cytoplasm b. cytoplasm; cytoplasm c. nucleus; cytoplasm d. nucleus; nucleus e. nucleoid; nucleoid

Cells a and b are the same size and shape, but cell a is metabolically quiet and cell b is actively consuming oxygen. oxygen will diffuse more quickly into cell because . b the oxygen molecules inside cell b have a higher kinetic energy b. a its membrane transport proteins will not be saturated c. a the diffusion gradient there is shallowerd. b the diffusion gradient there is steeper
