Question

Which of the following statements explains why proteins are made FASTER in bacteria compared to eukaryotic cells? Select one: O a. mutations in eukaryotic DNA always result in a different amino acid sequence O b. eukaryotic cells have to replicate DNA whenever more proteins are needed O c. in eukaryotic cells, protein synthesis only occurs after mRNA is processed and transported through nuclear pores O d. bacteria cannot make proteins until after their mRNA is finished being made O e. protein synthesis occurs in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells so it takes them longer to get delivered

Answer 1

Transcription and translation can happen at the same time in bacteria, which is the main reason why protein production is faster in bacteria than in eukaryotic cells12. Bacteria always have more ribosomes than eukaryotic cells2. Methionine's shape makes it harder to add onto a polypeptide chain compared to N-Forymlmethionie's shape, which is another reason why protein production is faster in bacteria than in eukaryotic cells2.
