Answer:

Introns

Explanation:

The coding region of the gene is the part of the gene that is transcribed. However, not all of the gene makes the final mRNA. There are sequences called exons and introns in the coding region of the gene.

The pre-mRNA contains transcribed sequences of both the introns and exons. However, the introns are removed from the final mRNA by splicing. The final mRNA that is translated to the protein only contains exons. An illustration is attached to illustrate this.

Red-green color blindness in humans is inherited as an X-linked recessive trait. Usually, heterozygous females are not colorblin

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The mentioned characteristics of variability are witnessed because of the phenomenon known as X chromosome inactivation in heterozygous females. As females possess two X chromosomes, they actually should not possess any color blindness.

The phenomenon of X-chromosome inactivation takes place in a random manner at the time of embryo development. During this only one X chromosome is inactivated. If the chromosome comprising the defective gene is inactivated, the individual will possess normal vision.

If the chromosome comprising the usual gene gets inactivated than the individual will be color blind. In the given case of female, X inactivation took place in one eye. The inactivation of normal alleles has taken place and thus she possesses normal vision with one eye and is color blind in the other eye.
