name TWO mechanisms of control of gene expression that are only used by eukaryotes and EXPLAIN WHY each of those mechanisms wouldn’t be possible in prokaryotes.
There are four levels of regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes -
Transcriptional control
Control during RNA processing
Control during RNA transport
Translational control
Out of these four levels, transcriptional control and translational control are common to prokaryotes and eukaryotes. This is because transcription and translation occur in both of them.
But control during RNA processing and RNA transport is exclusive to eukaryotes only. RNA processing is the method by which introns are removed and exons are joined together. Introns are absent in prokaryotes and therefore RNA processing does not occur. Hence control of gene expression at the level of RNA processing does not occur in prokaryotes.
On the other hand, control during RNA transport occurs in eukaryotes when RNA is being transported from nucleus into cytoplasm. RNA is synthesized in nucleus but it undergoes translation in cytoplasm so it is to be transported. But nucleus is absent in prokaryotes. Translation and transcription takes place in cytoplasm only. So there is no RNA transport in prokaryotes and hence no control of gene expression at this level.
Please rate high.

name TWO mechanisms of control of gene expression that are only used by eukaryotes and discuss why each of those mechanisms wouldn’t be possible in prokaryotes.
Detailed explanation plz. 4. In class, we discussed that regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes and prokaryotes have some similarities and some differences. I want you to focus on what's different between these two type of cells: name TWO mechanisms of control of gene expression that are only used by eukaryotes and discuss why each of those mechanisms wouldn't be possible in prokaryotes.

Part 1. Eukaryotes use at least two distinct mechanisms to control gene expression by altering the structure of chromatin around a particular gene. One of these mechanisms is the covalent modification of histones to switch DNA between an open and closed confirmation. A second mechanism is the covalent modification of DNA (typically on cytosines) by methylation. A. Describe a type of histone modification and explain what effect is has on chromatin, and how that effect is achieved. a. One type...
Q1)Which of the following is not involved in control of gene expression in eukaryotes? A. Change to DNA sequence. B. Alternative splicing. C. Export of mRNA from the nucleus. D. Transcriptional repression. E. Destruction of mRNA Q2) Trans-acting regulators of gene expression include? A. promoters. B. histone deacetylases C. introns D. silencers E. the TATA box. Q3) Gene regulation in eukaryotes often involves which of the following, which are not also used by prokaryotes? A.RNA polymerase B.Transcription factors C.Histone modification...
Coordinate regulation of gene expression is important both in bacteria and eukaryotes. Operons are used to co-ordinate gene expression in bacteria but NOT eukaryotes. Explain why operons strategy does not work in eukaryotes.
Discuss all the different ways and mechanisms that eukaryotes use to regulate gene expression.
Regulation of Gene Expression in Eukaryotes In all organisms, certain genes are expressed at any given time while other genes are not. Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes regulate gene expression at the transcription stage. However the greater complexity of eukaryotic cells makes it possible for gene expression to be regulated at many other stages as well. The diagram below shows different stages at which gene expression may be regulated in eukaryotes. nucleus chro modifica anscription RNA processing cytoplasm degradation protein processing...
Which of the following mechanisms to regulate gene expression are observed in eukaryotes, but are not generally observed in prokaryotes? Choose all that apply. Genes are grouped into operons, which allows transcriptional regulation to turn them all on together. RNA silencing selectively targets mRNA and destroys it to prevent further translation. Proteins can be activated or deactivated as a form of post-translational regulation. Epigenetic regulation can open or condense sectiosn of a chromosome, regulating which genes are transcribed. Regulatory proteins...
Please briefly explain the Regulation of Gene Expression in Eukaryotes at various levels (Please explain EACH): - Chromatin Structure/ Epigenetics - Transcriptional control - Processing and Stability of mRNA - Translational Control - Posttranslational control of protein function - Eliminating the Protein
Transcriptional control of gene regulation is common in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Which of the following is not true? Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes: A. exhibit both positive and negative control. B. have repressors that impact expression. C. often requires interactions with DNA that is not proximal to structural genes. D. have genes that are closely related in function located proximally on a chromosome
