Answer:  Portions called introns are removed and the remaining exons are spliced together

Explanation:

<u>The messenger RNA obtained after transcription is known as primary transcribed RNA or precursor RNA, and it has to undergo modifications before exerting its function. This is called RNA processing or maturation.</u><u> </u>

In the DNA sequence, the coding content of a gene is not continuously distributed along the gene, but has discontinuities, called introns, whose sequence does not encode proteins. The parts of the sequence that encode proteins are called exons. Through a process called splicing (which is one of the modification that are part of the RNA maduration),<u> the introns are eliminated and the exons are joined forming a mature messenger RNA</u> molecule that will be used for protein synthesis.

So the exons are part of the region of a gene that is not separated during the cutting and splicing process and is therefore kept in the mature messenger RNA. <u>Each exon codes a specific portion of the entire protein</u>, so that the set of exons forms the coding region of the gene.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs in gametic cells. In this cell division, one cell is divided into four cells and the chromosome number is reduced to half therefore it is also called reduction division.

During meiosis crossing over occurs between homologous chromosomes that allow the exchange of genetic material between them that results in the formation of genetically unique daughter cells.  

In spermatogenesis during the first meiosis division, the homologous chromosomes get separated into two daughter cells reducing the chromosome number by half and during second meiotic division sister chromatids separate into two more cells. Therefore four genetically different cells are generated.

There are no options to choose from and this makes it hard to answer the question. I hope my answer is correct and comes to your help. The reason that the new recruit fainted was that he did not use muscular compression to return the blood to the heart and thus his brain became devoid of oxygenated blood, resulting in the new recruit getting fainted.
