Atoms that are unstable undergo radioactive decay,

Elements with half life(that's how we know that it decayed),

Atoms that release energy and particles(like alpha beta and gamma particles) and,

Elements that have turned into a new element (as in radioactive decay no. of protons can decrease)

And to be precise the elements that have neutron to proton ratio of more than 1 undergo radioactive decay, since the nuclear attraction gets all weird after that.

A eukaryotic gene contains 14 exons. Most of the transcripts from this gene contain all 14 exons, but some contain only 11 exons

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

D. Alternative splicing is the mechanism that produce complexity in the genes by splicing some of the protein coding part (exons) of a genes

Explanation:

There are certain splicing enhancers sites present in Exons which facilitiates the binding of RNA binding protein specifically SR protein family rich in Serine and Arginine residues. This SR protein will help in splicing of exons.

The significance of this type of mechanism is the ability of a cell to produce an isoform of protein which have retain their function.

This mechanism also help is diversity or in short in evolution.
