One reason that prokaryotic genes do not contain introns is that 
A) the introns are cut out during binary fission. 
B) due to the short time the bacterium is around as a single organism, a 5' cap and poly (A) tail are added immediately for translation to take place. 
C) bacterial proteins are very short and not subject to mutation. 
D) translation sometimes begins before transcription has been completed because prokaryotes do not have a nucleus. 
E) integrated viral DNA is not recognized for transcription.
