Introns are deleted before a gene is transcribed from DNA to mRNA?

GaryK [48]3 years ago

Introns are deleted before a gene is transcribed from DNA to RNA because introns are non coding regions between exons their presence will interrupt the translation process.

Explanation:

Introns are the non coding regions on mRNA that are transcribed from a sequence of DNA. The introns are deleted by  RNA splicing and only exons are coded so that correct protein is formed otherwise introns would get coded along and wrong protein will be formed. Introns are present in eukaryotic cell.

Introns play a very important role in controlling gene expression. Multiple variant of a particular protein is controlled by introns. An error during splicing would cause a different protein to be code.

Introns are important because all the cells in eukaryotes have same group of genes and to prevent them in getting expressed in all the cells where they are not required.

Which best describes the length of time it should take to perform a pulse check acls?
gogolik [260]
The right answer is 5 - 10 seconds.
The heartbeat check according to ACLS should not take more than that.

The steps for checking your heartbeat are:
Have a watch. It will be used to measure your heart rate.Choose a place to take your pulse. It is better to choose either the neck or the wrist.
Place your fingers so that you feel your heartbeat. Choose a duration for the measurement (5 to 10 seconds).
Start counting.
Multiply the number by 12 if you counted for 5 seconds (by 6 if it is 10 seconds).

The normal frequency is between 50 and 80 bpm

Difference between cell and metabolism
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Cells are simply the basic units from which living things are made of, some are single cell organisms while others could be made of thousands, millions or billions of cells.

Metabolism refers to the sum total of chemical reactions that take place usually, but not by any means always, inside cells e.g they could also occur in the blood plasma or in inter-cellular spaces. They are indispensable for sustaining life.

marysya [2.9K]

Explanation:

Surprisingly, until recently, not much was known about the genes that control melanin production. 6 were known (MC1R, TYR, OCA2, SLC24A5, MATP and ASIP) and 17 more have been recently identified (DTNBP1, GPR143, HPS3, KITGL, MLPH, MYO5A, MYO7A, SLC45A2, TYRP1, ERCC6, GNAS, HERC2, IRF4, OBSCN, SKC24A5, TPNC2 and MITF), all of them directly or indirectly related to the process of melanin formation and distribution. Since there are so many different genes, if we count all the possible alterations, many different color variants can be produced.
