Any three of the following are acceptable.
1. Bacterial cells contain a single RNA polymerase, whereas eukaryotic cells have three.
2. Bacterial RNA polymerase can initiate transcription without the help of additional proteins, whereas eukaryotic RNA polymerases need general transcription factors.
3. In eukaryotic cells, transcription regulators can influence transcriptional initiation thousands of nucleotides away from the promoter, whereas bacterial regulatory sequences are very close to the promoter.
4. Eukaryotic transcription is affected by chromatin structure and nucleosomes, whereas bacteria lack nucleosomes.
