Biology

Introns stands for intervening sequences within a gene.

Explanation:

Introns are the nucleotide sequences within a gene which are intervening but noncoding regions on an RNA transcript which is spliced before the RNA translation to protein

Introns do not code amino acids for protein synthesis. They break the gene sequence in the DNA strand.

The introns form a large chunk and interfere with the protein coding of exons, hence are removed by splicesomes through splicing at the splice junctions.

Improper splicing of introns lead to faulty protein formation

How can irradiation solve a societal problem?
ivanzaharov [21]
One example of irradiation solving a societal problem might be the way in which it is able to prevent diseases in food. Using small amount of radiation, the bacteria and insects that would otherwise be carrying harmful bacteria can be killed. This will solve a societal problem, in that food wastage and illness due to food poisoning in poverty-stricken areas are massive problems faced in our society.
