Teak surfing is an activity that could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning. It is a water sport (illegal) wherein the person holds onto any part of a powerboat (such as the swim platform, swim deck, swim step, or swim ladder) while being dragged through the water. The boat may create a suction behind it and can trap exhaust fumes behind the boat, which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning to the person holding on to the boat.

Explanation:
<span>This answer seemed to come very easy. We are daily surrounded by people suffering from cancer. The cancer is cancer cells. Cancer cells crowd out our normal cells and feed off of nutrients within us to continue to grow and multiply.</span>
Answer: Yes. Splicing can be done in different ways to yield different mRNAs wich will create different proteins. Prokaryotes are not able to do this.
Explanation:
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a molecule that contains the genetic information for synthesizing amino acids that form proteins. To do this, DNA must first be transcribed into RNA (ribonucleic acid) and this is the molecule used for protein synthesis (translation). The newly transcribed RNA (called primary messenger RNA) from DNA results in a very long molecule and also has regions that do not code for anything, called introns, which are removed by a process called splicing. Exons are segments in the RNA that do code for amino acids and remain in the mature mRNA after splicing.
<u>Splicing is a process by which introns are cleaved from the primary messenger RNA and exons are joined to generate mature messenger RNA.</u> In addition, alternative splicing occurs which allows different mRNA isoforms and thus different proteins to be obtained from a primary mRNA transcript. This is because the exons will be joined or spliced in different ways, giving rise to different mature messenger RNA sequences. This process occurs mainly in eukaryotes, although it can also be observed in viruses. But it does not take place in Prokaryotes (Bacteria).
In summary, exons/introns can be spliced together in different ways to yield different mRNAs sequences. Each different mRNA sequence will code for a different protein.
