Which comparisons between eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomes are true?
Which comparisons between eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomes are true?
The only true comparison of those listed is that eukaryotic genes are not often present in operons, like prokaryotes often have (think the frequently studied lac operon). Eukaryotes, not prokaryotes, have many transposable elements (a contributing factor to why our genomes are so large). Prokaryotes do not have large spacer regions between their genes, their genomes are often extremely compact. Prokaryotic cells lack nuclei, thus, DNA replication occurs in the cytosol.
