So, I just got a question asking how in eukaryotes you can have equimolar amounts of different rRNA subunits and the answer was; both rRNA molecules are transcribed on the same chrom as a single transcript that subsequently undergoes cleavage.

edit: Just realized why I was incorrect-confused polycistronic with something else.
