Which modification is crucial in preparing an mRNA strand for proper translation? removal of introns and the splicing together o

Removal of introns and the splicing together of exons.

Introns are regions of the DNA code that do not code for amino acids; therefore, they need to be removed before the mRNA strand is translated. Exons are the parts of the strand that do code for proteins, so they need to be pieced together once the introns are removed.
