Transcription of DNA in eukaryotes is different from transcription in prokaryotes. In eukaryotes a gene that is transcribed make
s a mRNA that has pieces to be kept to make protein and pieces to be chopped out and not used to make protein. The parts that are kept and used to make protein are called_______.
In eukaryotic cell the primary transcript are very long the contains coding region (exons) and non coding region (introns)
The parts of the gene sequence that are expressed (coding region) in the protein are called exons, because they are expressed, while the parts of the gene sequence that are not expressed in the protein are called introns, because they come in between the exons.
Intron is a portion of a gene that does not code for amino acids. These Intron sequence are cleaved out and exons are spliced (I. E combine together) to form the mature mRNA molecule.
Exons are the mRNA parts that are kept and used to make protein.
The correct answer is option C. Endocrine glands secrete hormones into the bloodstream because endocrine glands are ductless and the exocrine glands have ducts so they secrete their hormones into the ducts.
