This process requires the restart of transcription. Suggest a plausible explanation for abortive cycling.arrow_forward

However, bacterial transcription is also terminated in places where the mRNA folds back on itself to form a hairpin-looped structure like the one shown below.

Choose one: • Transcription occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotes and in the cytoplasm in prokaryotes. Eukaryotes transcribe both strands of DNA, while prokaryotes transcribe only one strand.
