Can jurors ask to see evidence or transcripts?

Jurors are generally allowed to see evidence and they're not allowed to see transcripts. What they do is they have what's called a readback. Say there was a particular witness, such as a doctor, and the jurors want to hear the cross-examination of the doctor. The court reporter that's taking notes will go back into the jury room and will read that portion of the testimony to the jurors, but they're not allowed generally to look at transcripts. Jurors are allowed to review evidence depending on what the evidence is.
