Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes synthesize mRNA through DNA-dependent RNA polymerase transcribing complementary RNA from template strand. Capping, poly-A tailing, and spliceosome-mediated splicing are eukaryote-specific post-transcriptional modifications absent in bacteria, which couple transcription and translation.
