What would happen if introns were not removed during RNA processing?

Biology

Answer:

The protein would be incorrect and the protein might not function.

Explanation:

We know that introns carry information but introns not only carry information to build a protein. They have to be removed for the mRNA to encode a protein with the right protein sequence.

If the spliceosome fails to remove an intron, an mRNA with extra "junk" will be created in it. As a result, a wrong protein will be created during translation.

If a wrong protein sequence is created, it will hamper the whole translation process. The protein won't function properly.

Which of the following organic compounds is the main source of energy for living things?a.carbohydratesc.nucleic acidsb.lipidsd.
Alex Ar [27]
Well, carbohydrates burn and release energy. Nucleic acids give identity (like DNA, RNA). Lipids also give energy, but it's more difficult (they must be first turned into carbohydrates first). Proteins are building blocks for the cells.
Now, knowing all of this should make it easy to choose the correct answer :)
