### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Introduction to RNA Polymerases in Eukaryotic Cells:** Eukaryotic cells contain three main types of RNA polymerases, each responsible for synthesizing different types of RNA. These are RNA Polymerase I, RNA Polymerase II, and RNA Polymerase III. 2. **RNA Polymerase I:** - **Function:** - RNA Polymerase I is primarily responsible for synthesizing ribosomal RNA (rRNA), which is a crucial component of ribosomes. ...

  • Mark the incorrect differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic transcription. I. In eukaryotes , the genes are split having exons and introns while in prokaryotes it isn't . ii The structural gene which is to be transcribed is generally mono- cistronic in prokaryotes and poly-cistronic in eukaryotes . III . The RAN formed with the help of RNA polymerase in eukaryotes requires future processing to function as m-RNA while in prokaryotes it is directly used as m - RNA. IV. In eukaryotes, RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region while in prokaryotes it binds to the operator region .
