<prompt> Bacteria are simple genetic units with all of the following properties, EXCEPT:They are diploidTheir genetic material is organized into a single chromosomeTheir DNA has intervening sequences introns in almost all genesThey use same genetic code as all the eukaryotes  <response>: Prokaryotes cant have introns, because they have transcription coupled to translation. They dont have timespace for that, since intron splicing will stop the coupling. Eukaryotes evolved the nucleus, where splicing can be done.The parts of the gene sequence that are expressed in the protein are called exons, because they are expressed, while the parts of the gene sequence that are not expressed in the protein are called introns, because they come in between the exons.
