Which of the Following is Not a Reason for the Importance

Question

Which of the following is not a reason for the importance of mRNA processing in eukaryotes?
A)longevity in the cytoplasm
B)coupling of transcription and translation
C)presence of a nuclear membrane
D)turnover in the cytoplasm
E)removal of introns

Accepted Answer

Coupling of transcription and translation is a process that occurs in prokaryotes, not eukaryotes. In eukaryotes, transcription occurs in the nucleus and translation occurs in the cytoplasm, and these processes are separated both spatially and temporally, unlike in prokaryotes where they can occur simultaneously.
