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

Lemur [1.5K]

C) The percentage of pink flowers should increase over time.

Explanation:

According to the given information, the plants with pink flowers are able to reproduce more but are also have higher rates of herbivores as the slugs preferably eat the pink-flowered plants.

If slugs are removed from the system, the plants with pink flowers would have an absolute reproductive advantage over the plants with white flowers. This would increase the frequency of plants with pink flowers as they exhibit reproductive success over the plants with white flowers.
