Seismic waves are waves produced by earthquakes. This occurs when rocks under the earth suddenly break or explode. There are two MAIN TYPES of seismic waves called body waves and surface waves.   <span>Body waves have the capacity to travel through the Earth's inner layers. They have a higher frequency and they are the ones that first occur under water at the onset of an earthquake. They can be subdivided into two types, the primary and secondary waves that arrive at seismic records one after another.

Surface waves can only traverse through the surface of the planet like ripples in the water. These waves can easily be detected on a seismogram result. These waves arrive after body waves and they are the ones mostly responsible for damages and destruction bought by earthquakes.</span>       <span> </span>

A complete plant gene containing four introns and five exons is carried on a 6.0-kb DNA fragment. DNA sequencing analysis finds
damaskus [11]

Answer and Explanation:

the total length of the gene is 6,000 base pairs (or) 6.0 kb and it has five exons, four introns and a 1,000 base pair length flanking region for the transcribed region.

Hence, each exon has (1500/5) = 300 by

each intron has (3500/4) = 875 by and

flanking segment (5' and 3') length for the transcribed region would be (1000/2) = 500 bp.

The gene segment is as shown in the <em>1st diagram attached below </em>

In eukaryotes, transcription takes place in the nucleus which results in the synthesis of hnRNA (heteronuclear ribonucleic acid). This hnRNA (pre-RNA) has both introns and exons, however when it is synthesized or while it is being synthesized the Spliceosomal complex removes introns from hnRNA and becomes converted into mRNA (messenger RNA) in the nucleus itself.  

(<em>second diagram explains further)</em>

Now the synthesized mRNA reaches the cytoplasm. So, if mRNA collected from the nucleus and cytoplasm will have the same length of about 2,500 base pairs only. Therefore, after the commencement of northern blot analysis both mRNA will yield the same kind of result and have unique length.
