Question

Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic mRNA share the following features, EXCEPT:

Group of answer choices

a) Polypeptide/protein-coding sequence

b) A 3 prime untranslated region

c) A 5 prime untranslated region (UTR)

d) Two-fold symmetry that can form a hairpin

Answer 1

Except: b the 3 prime untranslated region. Because all prokaryotic and eukaryotic both share having a 5 prime (UTR), but due to the lack of evolutionary advances in prokaryotic they are no advanced enough to have the 3 prime untranslated region.
