Why might a single base-pair mutation in eukaryotic mRNA be less serious than one in prokaryotic mRNA?a. If the mutation occurs in the 5' end of the start site, it will not affect the gene product.b. If the mutation occurs in the exon, it will not affect the gene product.c. If the mutation occurs in the splice site of a transcript with alternative splicing, only one gene product mayaffected.O d. If the mutation occurs in the intron or not in the splice site of a transcript with alternative splicing, it will ncaffect the gene product.O e. If the mutation occurs in the 3' end of the start site, it will not affect the gene product.OLIE STIC N 1A

Single base pair mutation in mRNA transcript in Eukaryotes is less serious because mRNA of Eukarotes undergo processing before become completely functional whereas this is rarely seen in prokaryotes. During processing Intron or the non coding sequences are removed and exons the coding sequences are ligated together to produce a function transcript.d if mutation occurs in intron region then it will not effect the gene product because it will be spilcied and removed before formation of final transcript during processing anyway.
