Where are the choices? What following answers?
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.
Answer;
a segment of chromosomal DNA
Explanation;
A gene is a hereditary unit consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism. Genes undergo mutation when their DNA sequence changes.
It is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA. Some genes act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. However, many genes do not code for proteins.
Alleles are forms of the same gene with small differences in their sequence of DNA bases. These small differences contribute to each person’s unique physical features.
This is called the G1 phase I'm sure.
