All eukaryotes use operons to organize their genes while prokaryotes do not. Eukaryotes transcribe genes in response to environmental stimuli while prokaryotes transcribe genes randomly. Eukaryotes transcribe genes in response to environmental stimuli while prokaryotes transcribe genes randomly. Prokaryotes remove exons from mRNA before translation while eukaryotes translate the entire sequence of mRNA. Prokaryotes remove exons from mRNA before translation while eukaryotes translate the entire sequence of mRNA. Prokaryotes do not store their genes in a nucleus like eukaryotes do. Prokaryotes do not store their genes in a nucleus like eukaryotes do

Answer 1

The correct answer is: Prokaryotes do not store their genes in a nucleus like eukaryotes do.

This reflects a fundamental difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, as prokaryotes have their genetic material located in the cytoplasm, while eukaryotes have their DNA housed within a nucleus.

The other options provided contain incorrect statements about how gene regulation occurs in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. For example, not all eukaryotes use operons, and splicing of exons and introns is a characteristic of eukaryotic mRNA processing, not prokaryotic.
