  We present a parametrization of the observed enhancement in the transverse
electron quasielastic (QE) response function for nucleons bound in carbon as a
function of the square of the four momentum transfer ($Q^2$) in terms of a
correction to the magnetic form factors of bound nucleons. The parametrization
should also be applicable to the transverse cross section in neutrino
scattering. If the transverse enhancement originates from meson exchange
currents (MEC), then it is theoretically expected that any enhancement in the
longitudinal or axial contributions is small. We present the predictions of the
"Transverse Enhancement" model (which is based on electron scattering data
only) for the $\nu_\mu, \bar{\nu}_\mu$ differential and total QE cross sections
for nucleons bound in carbon. The $Q^2$ dependence of the transverse
enhancement is observed to resolve much of the long standing discrepancy in the
QE total cross sections and differential distributions between low energy and
high energy neutrino experiments on nuclear targets.
