Biology

Rufina [12.5K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer AND Explanation:

Fossil fuels are substances that are combusted to provide energy. They include coal, natural gas and oil. Nitrogen(IV) oxide is a byproduct of all fossil fuel combustion that contribute to acid rain and ground-level ozone. Nitrogen (IV) oxide can burn lung tissue making people more susceptible to asthma, bronchitis, and other chronic respiratory diseases.  When gases like sulphur (IV) oxide and nitrogen (IV) oxide mix they form acid rain and other precipitation when dissolved in water. Acidic precipitation increases the acidity of lakes and streams, which can be harmful to fish and other aquatic organisms.

Excess production of CO2 by industries results in green housse effect which causes global warming. The gases are also poisonous to the respiratory system causing breathing difficulties, eye irritation and headache.

Which section of the pre-mrna contains the protein-coding regions
raketka [301]

The exons of the pre -mRNA contain the protein -coding regions.

Pre mRNA is the first made mRNA transcript and requires undergo many post transcriptional modifications for the formation of a mature mRNA.

The exons are the regions of the pre-mRNA that are found in the mature RNA, after the splicing of introns takes place.

RNA splicing is the process in which the non-coding segments of the RNA, which are known as introns, are removed by the help of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins.  These SnRNPs make the spliceosome, which catalyzes the process of splicing.

After the introns are removed by the splicing process, the exons are covalently joined, which forms the mature mRNA.
