Means Mrna Translates Protein Monocistronic Euk Product Polycistronic

Monocistronic mRNA in eukaryotes translates into one protein, while polycistronic mRNA in prokaryotes translates into multiple proteins.

In Eukaryotes, monocistronic mRNA translates into one protein. In Prokaryotes, polycistronic mRNA translates into several proteins.

Text Monocistronic, in Euk, means that the mRNA translates into 1 protein product
Polycistronic,  in Pro, means the mRNA translates into several protein products
