Biology

Temka [501]3 years ago

Answer:

The exons may be defined as the coding region of the RNA that codes for the particular amino acid. The introns are the non coding region of RNA and must be removed in the final RNA product.

Exon shuffling result in the formation of new gene. The alteration of the exon and intron structure leads to the new gene function in evolution. The genes that are favored and conserved in the evolution perform new gene function. The genes that are selected against are deleted during the evolution.

Membranes in living cells, including those in humans, are characterized by a separation of charge across the membrane. effective
vladimir1956 [14]

Yes, energy is required to separate the charges. Mostly, the inner of the cell membrane is negatively charged compared to the outside. When the cell becomes depolarized, ions, especially, Sodium ions, are pumped out by active transportation to restore resting potential. Active transport requires energy from ATP powered by food metabolism.
