The right answers are:
A-present in eukaryotic genomes ==> Both exons and introns
B-generally absent from bacterial genomes ==> Introns
C-part of the final mRNA strand ==> Exons
D-code for an amino acid sequence ==> Exons
E-removed from initial mRNA strand prior to translation ==> Introns
F-present in the DNA used as the template for transcription ==> Both exons and introns
In the genes of eukaryotic organisms, the exons are the segments of an RNA precursor that are conserved in the RNA after splicing and that are found in mature RNA in the cytoplasm. The segments of the RNA precursor that are removed during splicing are called in opposition to introns. Exons are mainly found in messenger RNAs (mRNAs) encoding proteins. Some mRNAs may sometimes undergo an alternative splicing process in which one or more exons may be excised or some introns preserved in rare cases.
Explanation:
The modern theory of chemical evolution is based on the assumption that on a primitive earth a mixture of simple chemicals assembled into more complex molecular systems, from which, eventually came the first functioning cell(s).
B) Photosynthesis The Sun is the ultimate source of all energy in the universe. Plants being the main primary producers or autotrophs, use solar energy to make their own food through photosynthesis, thus converting energy into the organic matter that can be consumed by all organisms. They form the basis of almost all food chains from where consumers derive their food.
Answer:
Any combination of D, E and F
Explanation:
Since A, B, and C belong to different orders, and D, E and F belong to the same order, the latter are more closely related and thus are expected to show a greater degree of structural homology. They are closer to their common ancestor than A, B and C.
